Put yourself in the moment:
She's waiting for you to tell her how you feel
All you need is a signal before you put yourself at risk to fail
Draw breath in real slow
Here's your only chance, so please don't choke!
And if it's now or never then collect your thoughts
It's time to make your move
What are you waiting for?

There's only one way for you to know for sure,
But you're breathing harder than you ever have before
This situation begs to tear at your heart,
But the ball's in your court
So what are you waiting for?

There's a weight on my shoulders
It's pulling at my body, bringing me down
And then you look out the window,
But the comfort you seek is nowhere to be found

We're sitting so close
I can sense that she's still wanting more
And in the first light of morning,
Would I wake and have the right to say
"I'm giving it all I have
I'm pretty sure that's got to count for something
So, ready or not, here I go!"?

There's only one way for you to know for sure,
But you're breathing harder than you ever have before
This situation begs to tear at your heart,
But the ball's in your court
So what are you waiting for?

It's not what you say that matters the most,
As long as she knows you care
Throw out your pickup lines and be sincere
You know you're running out of time
The perfect moment exists to pass you by
It's the sickest kind of joke in mind
It only exists to haunt you if you're sharp

It's a matter of treason
My mind has now left my mouth to fend for itself
Going through all the motions,
Anything to keep her signing out

We're sitting so close
I can sense that she's still wanting more

If all I do is sit here,
I'm missing out on what could be the best relationship I've had
And at this time there's nothing more important than saying this
I guess I'm giving it all I have
I'm pretty sure that's got to count for something
That's got to count for something in the end

Oh!
And noone leaves 'til I get this off my chest
What are you waiting for?
There's only one way for you to know for sure,
But you're breathing harder than you ever have before
This situation begs to tear at your heart,
But the ball's in your court
So what are you waiting for?
If it's now or never,
Then what are you waiting for?
