[Verse 1]
Now we're gettin' down, early in the afternoon
We do a hundred sketchy things I swore I'd never get to do
There's a fire in your smile; let me watch for awhile
Can't keep my eyes off your legs with that dress on you
Wake me up now
I need this so bad
All the drugs I could fit in my lungs couldn't
Fuck me up half as hard as the understated one

[Chorus]
I've been waiting all my life for
I've been waiting all my life for
I've been waiting all my life for this
Waiting all my life for this

[Verse 2]
You make a blunt remark about my size
As wе walk down sunset boulevard trading starry eyеs
And the things that you say pierce my hide of LA
Watch you giggle as it spits up bile the block your way and I melt
As your top lip wrinkles
With wit so nimble
Wakes my ghost, cling to my former coast
You extend your arm to save me from its hungry moat
[Chorus]
And I've been waiting all my life for
I've been waiting all my life for
I've been waiting all my life for this
Waiting all my life for this

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
You tend to laugh with childish dignity
And you tend to pretend that you didn't always see
When I psychically said, "You should choose me instead"
My eyes stripped you bare right in front of me
But if you leave me
I'll always wait here
Born blondes put holes in our tongues
Wish to god I could have met you as a younger one

[Chorus]
I've been waiting all my life for
I've been waiting all my life for
I've been waiting all my life for this
Waiting all my life for this

[Outro]
One whole year
One whole year
One whole year
One whole year
