"Waiting To Love You" lyrics

"Waiting To Love You"

Like a quick-draw shot straight to the heart
You finish everything I could never start
It's like watching magic happen
Ain't saying a word, just holding my hand
Talking in tongues, but I understand
Just from hearing you laughing

You're like a night train flying outta Memphis
Home run, swinging for the fences
Dancing in your living room slow to fire and rain
You're like a long lost love outta nowhere
The thing you never find
You make me feel alive and I know why
I've been waiting to love you my whole life
I've been waiting to love you my whole life

I was addicted to red, couldn't hold back
I'd take every risk and put it all on black
Losing hands was automatic
But she came in, changed my mind
Like a thunderbolt falling bright from the sky
And cut through all the traffic

You're like a night train flying outta Memphis
Home run, swinging for the fences
Dancing in your living room slow to fire and rain
You're like a long lost love outta nowhere
The thing you never find
You make me feel alive and I know why
I've been waiting to love you my whole life
I've been waiting to love you my whole life

I can't explain it
Your love keeps on raining on me
And I know why

You're like a night train flying outta Memphis
Home run, swinging for the fences
Dancing in your living room slow, fire and rain
You're like a long lost love outta nowhere
The thing you never find
You make me feel alive and I know why
You make me feel alive and I know why
I've been waiting to love you my whole life
I've been waiting to love you my whole life
I've been waiting to love you my whole life
