Waiting (Otis Mix)

[Verse 1]

I've been waitin' a long time

For this moment to come, I'm

Destined for anything at all

Downtown, lights will be shinin'

On me, like a new diamond ring out

Under the midnight hour

Well, no one can touch me now, well

And I can't turn my back, it's too late

Ready or not at all

[Chorus]

Well, I'm so much closer than

I have ever known

Wake up!

[Verse 2]

Dawning of a new era calling

Don't let it catch ya falling

Ready or not at all

Oh, so close enough to taste it

Almost, I can embrace this feelin'

On the tip of my tongue

[Chorus]

Well, I'm so much closer than

I have ever known

Wake up!

[Post-Chorus]

Bettеr thank your lucky stars!

Say, hey, hey!

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Well, I'm so much closеr than

I have ever known

Wake up!

[Post-Chorus]

You better thank your lucky stars!

Say, hey, hey!

[Outro]

I've been waiting a lifetime

For this moment to come, I'm

Destined for anything at all

Dumbstruck, color me stupid

Good luck, you're gonna need it

Where I'm going, if I get there at all

Wake up!

You better thank your lucky stars!
