Story Behind The Song
This is the story of a prior relationship where the other person still went out and acted like they were single. Their phone rang off the hook all the time too, making it difficult to spend time with them. When there was time, half of it was filled with fighting.
Song Description
In love and kept up all night long just wanting to be with that one person. That one person being flighty, argumentative, always on the phone, and less than committal...creating a bad relationship.

Lyrics
Waiting For You
Just one night alone.
Just one night. You can forget your phone.
Just an hour or two.
Cause time I'd kill; I'd kill to be with you.
And maybe you're busy tonight.
You're keepin' me up... You're keepin' me up all night.
First time, you're into me.
Next, I'm the enemy.
Three times you've got me waiting for you.
Wonderin' what you're doin' now.
Spendin' time... I don't know how.
I don't know why I'm always waiting for you.
I'm gettin' you alone.
Let's not fight. Turn off your phone.
Just one time or two.
Makin' love... I'm makin' love with you.
And you'll be busy tonight.
You're keepin' me up... You're keepin me up all night.
First time, you're into me.
Next, I'm the enemy.
Three times you've got me wantin' you.
Wonderin' what you're doin' now.
Spendin' time... I don't know how.
I don't know why I'm always wantin' you.
And maybe you're busy tonight.
You're keepin' me up. Baby, do you think that that's alright?
First time, you're into me.
Next, I'm the enemy.
Three times you've got me waiting for you.
Wonderin' what you're doin' now.
Spendin' time... I don't know how.
I don't know why I'm always wantin' you.
First time, you're into me.
Next, I'm the enemy.
Three times you've got me wantin' you.
Wonderin' what you're doin' now.
Spendin' time... I don't know how.
I don't know why I'm always waiting for you.
