[Verse 1]

I hope that you like it in your little motel

And I hope that the suite sleeps and suits you well

Well, I can see it as time and a sight through smell and

That's why it's nice to be by yourself

[Chorus]

'Cause that's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for, aren't I?

That's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for, darlin'

[Verse 2]

We treat mishaps like sinking ships and

I know that I don't want to be out to drift

Well, I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and

They both tell me that we're better than this

[Chorus]

'Cause that's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for, aren't I?

That's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for, darlin'

[Verse 3]

We trade tit for tat like that for this

And I don't think that there was an insult that was missed

I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and

I'm very sorry

[Chorus]

'Cause that's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for, aren't I?

That's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for

That's what I'm waitin' for, darlin'

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]

Remainders of a shooting star

Landed directly on our broke down little car

Before then we had made a wish

That we would be missed

If one or another just did not exist

[Chorus]

'Cause that's what we're waitin' for

That's what we're waitin' for

That's what we're waitin' on, aren't we?

That's what we're waitin' for

That's what we're waitin' for

That's what we're waitin' on, are we?

That's what we're waitin' for

That's what we're waitin' for

That's what we're waitin' for, darling

[Outro]

That's what we're waitin' for

That's what we're waitin' for

That's what we're waitin' for, aren't we?
