Lyrics Emmelie De Forest - What Are You Waiting For

The sidewalk is empty
We’re standing all alone here
The street light casts a glow on your face

I wish I was so much braver
Maybe if you were braver too
This would all be up to you

What are you waiting for?
Why don’t you move in closer?
What are you waiting for?
Don’t leave me standing on my own

You’re making me insecure
Prove me wrong and win me over
What are you waiting for?

It’s raining
I’m aching for you as my shelter
Take me in and keep me safe

I guess I want you ’cause I can’t have you
Who decided all these rules
When it’s only up to you?

What are you waiting for?
Why don’t you move in closer?
What are you waiting for?
Don’t leave me standing on my own

You’re making me insecure
Prove me wrong and win me over
What are you waiting for?

Here I go again
This is where I stand, yeah
There is nothing you can lose

What are you waiting for?
Why don’t you move in closer?
What are you waiting for?
Don’t leave me standing on my own

You’re making me insecure
Prove me wrong and win me over
What are you waiting for?

What are you waiting for?
Why don’t you move in closer?
What are you waiting for?
Don’t leave me standing on my own

You’re making me insecure
Prove me wrong and win me over
What are you waiting for?

It’s raining
I’m aching for you as my shelter
Take me in and keep me safe
