[Intro: Joel Smallbone]
What are we waitin' for? (Waitin', oh, waitin', oh-oh)
What are we waitin' for? (Waitin' for, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

[Verse 1: Joel Smallbone & Luke Smallbone]
Can't be what we can't see
Can't speak when we can't breathe
Can't dance if we don't move our feet
It's a blur, tryna keep pace
Days are runnin' like they're in a race
Can't move if we're in our own way
I guess the crisis is we've just one life to live
And no one knows what happens next

[Chorus: Joel Smallbone, Luke Smallbone & Both]
So, what are we waitin' for? What are we waitin' for?
Why are we wastin' all the time like somеone's makin' more?
What are wе prayin' for? What are we savin' for?
What if we could be the light that no one could ignore?
What are we waitin' for?
Waitin' for, waitin' for, waitin' for
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2: Luke Smallbone & Joel Smallbone]
Put the pen on a new page
Dream about what you could change
And live it out, before it's too late
The beauty of it is, we've just one life to live
And no one knows what happens next, no
[Chorus: Joel Smallbone, Luke Smallbone & Both]
What are we waiting for? (Waiting)
What are we waitin' for? (Waiting)
Why are we wasting all the time like someone's making more?
What are we praying for? (Praying)
What are we saving for? (Saving)
What if we could be the light that no one could ignore?
What are we waiting for?
Waitin' for, waitin' for (What are we waitin' for)
Waiting for
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

[Bridge: Luke Smallbone, Joel Smallbone & Both]
If I love better, and you love better
Our love will live on forever
If I love better, and you love better
Our love will live on forever

[Chorus: Joel Smallbone, Luke Smallbone & Both]
What are we waitin' for?
What are we waitin' for?
Why are we wastin' all the time like someone's makin' more?
(Why are we wastin' all this time?)
What are we prayin' for? (PrayWhat are we png)
What' for?are we savin' for? (Savin')
What if we could be the light that no one could ignore?
What are we waiting for?
[Outro: Luke Smallbone & Joel Smallbone, Both]
What are we (Waiting), what are we waiting for? (For)
What are we wait— (Waitin'), what are we waitin' for? (For)
What are we wait— (Waitin'), what are we waiting for? (For)
Oh-oh-oh-oh
What are we (Waiting), what are we waitin' for? (For)
What are we wait— (Waitin'), what are we waiting for? (For)
What are we wait— (Waitin'), what are we waiting for? (For)
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Tell me what you waiting, what you're waitin', what you're waitin' for
