[Verse 1]
I called you up on the telephone
But you wasn't there
I thought and called your mother's house
Looking for you everywhere
So I decided to go out
And have myself some fun (have myself some fun)
'Cause when you didn't come by
I knew I was not your only one

[Chorus]
Waiting for you (I'm gonna be waiting)
I'm hoping that you'll come by (I've been waiting for you)
And see me sometime
Waiting for you (I'm gonna be waiting)
I'm hoping that you'll come by (I've been waiting for you)
And see me sometime

[Post-Chorus]
I'm gonna be waiting
I called you up, there was no answer

[Verse 2]
I walked up to you at the club
But you didn't care
You seem to keep right on ignoring me
You didn't even stop and stare
So I decided to go on and have my fun (have my fun)
Now I realize you wasn't by my side
Knowing I was not your only one
[Chorus]
Waiting for you (I'm gonna be waiting)
I'm hoping that you'll come by (I've been waiting for you)
And see me sometime
Waiting for you (I'm gonna be waiting)
I'm hoping that you'll come by (I've been waiting for you)
And see me sometime

[Post-Chorus]
I'm gonna be waiting
I called you up, there was no answer
I'm gonna be waiting
I've been looking for you everywhere
I'm gonna be waiting
There was no answer

[Verse 1, recap]
So I decided to go out
And have myself some fun (have myself some fun)
'Cause when you didn't come by
I knew I was not your only one

[Chorus]
Waiting for you (I'm gonna be waiting)
I'm hoping that you'll come by (I've been waiting for you)
And see me sometime
Waiting for you (I'm gonna be waiting)
I'm hoping that you'll come by (I've been waiting for you)
And see me sometime
Waiting for you (I'm gonna be waiting)
I'm hoping that you'll come by (I've been waiting for you)
And see me sometime
Waiting for you (I'm gonna be waiting)
I'm hoping that you'll come by (I've been waiting for you)
And see me sometime
