The Lyrics to Carterjames - Whats on your Mind - Debut CD
What Are You Waiting For |
What are you waiting for?
When you’re standing right next to a tree
If you look up and see
Some people see equations that’ll blow your mind
Like answers why things fall through time
Others just see the fruit that it bears
And they’ll take it without a care
So what are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
Where are you looking to?
People around you move
Dancing around to a tune
If you sit down, you won’t get up
If you go in, you won’t come out
Don’t wait for your numbers to fall
What if they don’t fall at all?
So what are you waiting for?
I’m waiting for a sign
I’m waiting for a break
I’m waiting for my time to come
I’m waiting for the dawn
I’m waking up today
To seize it in every way
I’m waiting for my time to come
I’m waiting to make a change
I read the stars each day
Expecting there to be
Some solution to
Why I’m still serving them
Like it’s a game you play
The higher up, you win
What have they given me
They’ve taken all the way
Why can’t the stars look down
And find out what’s to be
When I know it’s right
Why can’t they look at me
When I’ve played their games
And all they’ve thrown at me
Why can’t I field this time
Sit back, direct the scene
I’m still waiting for a sign
I’m still waiting for a break
I’m waiting for my time to come
I’m waiting for the dawn
I’m waking up today
To seize it in every way
I’m waiting for my time to come
I’m waiting to make a change
What are you waiting for? (Repeat in outro)
