Two years, three years,
You have had my eye
Handsome, friendly,
Someone else's guy

I'll see you at a party,
And we will say hello
We'll chatter at a party,
And I'll wonder if you know

I'm not waiting for you
I'm not waiting for you

Single, hardly,
You can play the field
Friends say, no way,
I just clutch my shield

But I'll see you at a party,
And want to hold you so
I'll feel you at a party,
But I quickly whisper no

I'm not waiting for you
I'm not waiting for you

Am I old? Am I dumb?
Do I wear the wrong kind of jeans?
Am I fat? Am I slow?
Do I read the wrong magazines?
Am I tall? Am I cold?
Am I all the wrong inbetweens?

I'm not changing
I'm not growing
You're not watching
I'm not going
We're not loving
You're not seeing
I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting

Four years, five years,
Finally get that call
You're free, I'm free,
Free to disenthrall
But we stagger to a party,
As if it were an alibi
You lose me at the party,
And I stop to wonder why

I've been waiting for you
I'm not waiting for you
