Don't be scared it's only natural to feel this way

You're anxious for a brighter day

Wonder when she'll look my way

The water feels cool for a moment or two

But then you're pruned up by the pool

Nothing to do but watch her swim

Then she asks do you want to come in

Don't be a fool

I know you're waiting for the right time

If you don't jump you'll lose her if you stand still you'll cry

Don't be a fool

Just say the words that come to your mind

If you don't jump you'll lose her if you stand still you'll cry

I know you're waiting for her

I know you're waiting I I know you're waiting

I know you're waiting I I know you're waiting

I know you're waiting I I know you're waiting

I know you're waiting I I know you're waiting

She was overseas chasing dreams that summer

Call me on the phone to talk about a new lover

Oblivious life without a care

I don't have the right to call you unaware

But maybe she dreams the same as you

And a life you see is coming true

Not as far as it used to be

You owe it to yourself it's only fair

Don't be a fool

I know you're waiting for the right time

If you don't jump you'll lose her if you stand still you'll cry

Don't be a fool

Just say the words that come to your mind

If you don't jump you'll lose her if you stand still you'll cry

I know you're waiting for her

I know you're waiting I I know you're waiting

I know you're waiting I I know you're waiting

I know you're waiting I I know you're waiting

I know you're waiting I I know you're waiting
