What Are We Waiting For
Now United Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Remember the time on the hood of my car?
When we kissed looking up at the stars
Your smile always gave you away
And your eyes always told me to stay

You always wanted me around
But you won't admit that right now
You know I want you
I know you shoot me down

What are we waiting for?
What are we waiting for?
All of this back and forth
I don't wanna wait no more

You know all we have is now
I know, I won't let you down
What are we waiting for?
What are we waiting for?

What are we waiting for?
What are we waiting for?

Remember the time we made out in the kitchen?
Baby, it's you the one that I'm missing
Too many lonely nights and long days
But my feelings won't seem to fade

Yes I loved you even then
I just want it back again
I can't forget you
We ain't finished yet

What are we waiting for?
What are we waiting for?
All of this back and forth
I don't wanna wait no more

You know all we have is now
I know, I won't let you down
What are we waiting for?
What are we waiting for?

What are we waiting for?
What are we waiting for?

Jump in head first
We might get hurt
I love when I wear
Your old t-shirt

Let's not slow down
Where are we going now?
We will get there
We'll be better

(Come on) oh, oh, oh (yeah, yeah)
Oh, oh, oh
I don't wanna wait, no

Oh, oh, oh (what can I do?)
Oh, oh, oh (hey, sing with me now)
Oh, oh, oh
What are we waiting for?

What are we waiting, waiting
What are we waiting for? (What are we waiting, waiting)
What are we waiting, waiting
(Oh) what are we waiting for?

Baby, tell me
What can I do?
What are we waiting for?
(Clap your hands, come on)
(No) what are we waiting for?

Bring it to me now
What you waiting for?
What are we waiting for?
What you waiting for?





Got you baby
What are we waiting for?
