[Verse 1]
The look in my eyes, there's a genuine attraction
Your love has taken over me
And I'm so surprised how I'm controlling my intentions
'Cause in my heart I know you're not ready
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm living off a fantasy
Dreaming about how it will be
The touching, the kissing, is what I'm truly missing
'Cause if I had my way, you'd be lying here next to me
[Chorus 1]
I'm waiting for the day that you will stay all night
Baby, I'm waiting for the day you'll say the timing's right
I don't need no explanation, girl, I know just how you feel
The love is real, your love is real
[Bridge]
I'm waiting
I'm waiting
I'm waiting
I'm waiting for the day
[Verse 2]
Girl I can't lie, there's nothing I want more than
To feel your body close to mine
But I'm gonna try to understand what you're feeling
I won't let you put your heart on the line
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You will be mine, but I have not forgotten
I sincerely made a promise to you
Things come in time, so patiently awaiting
For the moment when you say "I do"
[Chorus 2]
I'm waiting for the day that you will stay all night
Baby, I'm waiting for the day you'll say the timing's right
I don't need no explanation, girl, I know just how you feel
The love is real, your love is real
And I am waiting for the day that you will stay all night
Baby, I'm waiting for the day you'll say the timing's right
I don't need no explanation, girl, I know just how you feel
The love is real, your love is real
[Verse 3]
(Divine, talk to them, man)
Oh, I'm so excited 'cause I know I'm in love
And it's this special kind of feeling I just can't get enough of
I really tried to fight it, didn't think I would fall
But let me tell you 'bout this lady, so, yo, check it out, y'all
I really think she's the one for me
The type of girl that makes me wanna give up other people's property
I really, really like the way that I feel
And the way that I feel for you is for real
[Verse 4]
All I wanna do is be good to you
And give you all the love I want to give to you
I hope you realize that the feeling is right
And I'll be waiting for the day when you will spend the night
[Bridge (3x)]
I'm waiting
I'm waiting
I'm waiting
I'm waiting for the day
[Chorus 2]
I'm waiting for the day that you will stay all night
Baby, I'm waiting for the day you'll say the timing's right
I don't need no explanation, girl, I know just how you feel
The love is real, your love is real
And I am waiting for the day that you will stay all night
Baby, I'm waiting for the day you'll say the timing's right
I don't need no explanation, girl, I know just how you feel
The love is real, your love is real
The look in my eyes, there's a genuine attraction
Your love has taken over me
