Lyric Why Am I Waiting
By: Easther Bennett/Harvey Mason/Robert Gerald
(I sit here watching the clock tick)
(Why am I waiting)
Sitting on my bed now, waiting for you to come home
Counting all the minutes, anticipating
It s about time now, you know our love is so real
Stronger than the feelings I ve ever known
Why am I waiting for you
There s no time for dreaming, be true
Why am I waiting for you
Respect my love, just be there, be true
Tell me all my lonely nights, tell me
Don t wanna play your games
The way that I m feeling
Is it just a childish time
Show me your heart, show me your mind
Baby don t be such a fool
Cause you re treating me so cruel
Why am I waiting for you
There s no time for dreaming, be true
Why am I waiting for you
Respect my love, just be there, be true
Don t you think it s time to make it right
My love is too short to play around
Tell me that you believe in me
This is just a make believe
Baby show me your love
That is all I m asking for
Baby I need you, baby I want you
Baby come home
Why am I waiting for you
There s no time for dreaming, be true
Why am I waiting for you
Respect my love, just be there, be true
Why am I waiting for you
There s no time for dreaming, be true
Why am I waiting for you
Respect my love, just be there, be true
Why am I waiting for you
Pack your bags and now we re through
Why am I waiting for you
Cause I ve done all I can do
Why am I waiting for you
When you can t even be true
Why am I waiting for you
I can t see why I m waiting for you
[repeat chorus to fade]
