What Are You Waiting For?

V6

[Intro] (Oh, oh!) Come on, boy! (Yeah, yeah!) You know what I want! [Verse 1] I caught you looking over here For the third time tonight But when I turn to catch your eye You disappear from sight You've been standing with your friends Trying hard to play it cool But the way you keep on watching me You're not fooling anyone [Pre-Chorus] I've given you a hundred signs Don't make me give you one more! [Chorus] What are you waiting for? Come on and take a chance What are you waiting for? Just ask me for a dance I've been waiting all night long For you to make your move What are you waiting for? I've got nothing left to prove! [Verse 2] You finally make it over here With a nervous little grin You ask me how my night has been And where my friends have been I laugh and take a step toward you You nearly lose your nerve Boy, you don't have to say a thing Just give me what I deserve [Pre-Chorus] I've given you a hundred signs Don't make me give you one more! [Chorus] What are you waiting for? Come on and take a chance What are you waiting for? Just ask me for a dance I've been waiting all night long For you to make your move What are you waiting for? I've got nothing left to prove! [Guitar Solo] [Short funky electric guitar solo over syncopated synth-bass groove] [Bridge] Well, maybe I should take the lead And show you how it's done I put my hand inside of yours And suddenly we're having fun You pull me close, I turn around And smile at your surprise You could've had me hours ago If you'd just looked into my eyes! [Final Chorus] What are you waiting for? Come on and take a chance What are you waiting for? Just ask me for a dance I've been waiting all night long For you to make your move What are you waiting for? I've got nothing left to prove! [Outro] (What are you waiting for?) Don't keep me waiting! (What are you waiting for?) Come on, boy! (What are you waiting for?) You know you want to! (What are you waiting for?) Oh, yeah!
