Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Willing & waiting
But it's all up to you, oh
[Verse 2]
Hey-yeah-yeah
Ooh-ooh-woo
Oh
[Verse 3]
The very first time I laid my eyes on you
I knew you were the one
Nothing can compare to all the times
That we both had some fun
[Verse 4]
Sometimes I wanna cry
'Cause boy, I realize
I need you in my life
(I need you in my life)
Don't think he understands (Oh, no)
I want him for my man
Waitin' for you (Oh) (I, I'm willing)
[Verse 5]
Willing & waiting
So in love with you (So in love with you, babe)
Willing & waiting, boy, it's on you (Boy, it's on you)
I'm willing & waiting, boy, I need the truth
(Boy, I need the truth, yeah)
Willing & waiting, so in love with you (Oh)
[Verse 6]
Every time, boy, I take one look at you I see the sun just shine
When we're alone, never want the night to end
'Cause you're the one I want, oh
Sometimes I wanna cry (Oh, yeah)
'Cause boy, I realize
I need you in my life (I need you in my life)
Don't think he understands (Oh, no, no)
I want him for my man
I'm waiting for you (Said I'm waiting, said I'm waiting, I'm willing) (Oh)
[Verse 7]
Willing & waiting
So in love with you (So in love with you, babe)
Willing & waiting
Boy, it's on you (All on you, babe)
I'm willing & waiting, boy, I need the truth
(Boy, I need the truth, oh)
Willing & waiting
So in love with you (Oh, you)
[Verse 8]
(You better answer, yeah) Oh, yes, you better answer (You better)
Mmm, oh (You better answer) (Ooh, sometimes) (Oh)
Sometimes I wanna cry (I wanna cry)
'Cause, boy, I realize (Yeah)
I need you in my life (I need you in my life, baby)
Don't think he understands (Oh, no)
I want him for my man
I'm waiting for you (Said I'm willing, I'm willing, baby) (Oh)
[Verse 9]
Willing & waiting
So in love with you (So in love with you)
Willing & waiting
Boy, it's on you (Boy, boy)
I'm willing & waiting, boy, I need the truth (I need the truth, babe)
Willing & waiting
So in love with you (See I'm willing, willing & waiting) (Oh)
Willing & waiting
So in love with you (I'm willing & waiting for you, waiting for you)
Willing & waiting, boy, it's on you (See, I'm willing & waiting)
Willing & waiting, boy, I need the truth (Willing, willing)
I'm willing & waiting, so in love with you
(Waiting for you, waiting for you, waiting for you, waiting for you)
Willing & waiting, so in love with you (Every time I look into your eyes)
Willing & waiting, boy, it's on you (I, I, I, I, I see the sun just shine, shine)
I'm willing & waiting, boy, I need the truth
(See, I need for you to be my man)
Willing & waiting, so in love with you (So here I stand) (Oh)
Willing & waiting, so in love with you
Willing & waiting (Oh)
Boy, it's on you
I'm willing & waiting, boy, I need the truth
I'm willing & waiting
