I Am Waiting

Story Behind The Song

I have never been in love with anyone the way that I am in love with my current boyfriend. He took a year and a day to say "I Love You" (literally, I think it was like a year). It was driving me crazy, because I wanted to say it so badly, but I knew that I couldn't be the first one to say it. And no, it's not one of those "the guy has to say it first" game-type things... it's just that with him, you can look straight into his eyes and never know what he is thinking. So I was afraid that I would push him away if I said it before he was ready to hear it... he had to say it first.

Song Description

"How can you be so cold when your body is so warm?" Imagine falling in love and just wanting to show it every minute of everyday - and not knowing for certain if the other person feels the same way. Everyone needs reassurance sometimes in their lives, especially when you are throwing yourself out there with a 50% chance of being completely devastated. This song is about knowing in your heart that someone loves you, but just needing to hear the words.

Lyrics

How can you be so cold
when your body is so warm
So strong, so confident
suddenly so insecure

Look inside the window
I'm here, I'm home
If you're outside you'll be alone

I'm in your bedroom come find me
I am waiting
Tell me
Where are we going now
Tell me
I am waiting

One breath, I hesitate
And another I subside
So sweet, so innocent
At the same time, dirty ride

Come inside the front door
I'm here, I'm home
If you're outside you'll be alone

I'm in your bedroom come find me
I am waiting
Tell me
Where are we going now
Tell me
I am waiting

Oh, I know that we're still breathing
I know that it's not over
Find me
Tell me
Tell me

How can you be so cold
When your body is so warm
How can you be so cold
I will keep you warm

I'm in your bedroom come find me
I am waiting
Tell me
Where are we going now
Tell me
I am waiting

You go inside me
It's flawless
I am waiting
Tell me
Where are we going now
Tell me
I am waiting
