This one is about me waiting for New York Magazine to do a follow up on #FOTUS and how my life is generally in flames. But in my imagination this is sung by a woman. Women need songs like this at a club because they generally don’t feel comfortable making the first move.
Waiting On You
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform
I sit in my dark corner
watching the people walk by
girls and guys making love
with their eyes
you see me I know
so here I am
waiting on you
waiting on you is such a shame
why do you let this wither
no need to give me a come hither
waiting on you
is not a waste of time
waiting on you
while the music roars
waiting on you
you lick your lips giving me fits
but if you don’t make a move
there won’t be any heat
when our lips hit
why do I have to stand here
all night long along
waiting on you
what to do
you think you’ve got me figured out
don’t know what that’s all about
I have you round my finger
might make it linger
you need to make your move
what happens next is up to you
waiting on you
waiting on you is such a shame
why do you let this wither
no need to give me a come hither
waiting on you
is not a waste of time
waiting on you
while the music roars
waiting on you
[bridge]
when the waiting’s done
we’ll run into the night
knowing what’s about to light
we’ll burn our love
faster than the sun
my friends tell me I’m fool
plenty of other fish floating ’round
but you’re all a part of my plan
when the time comes to get down
there’ll be no more
waiting on you
waiting on you
waiting on you
