lyrics

Nine times we’ve said goodnight the awkward doorstep scene
And each one left me with a hug has me wondering
Do I need a mint, or better deodorant
Cause you’re moving slower than cold tar
Chorus
Are you waiting for lightening to strike
Or the world to stand still, the stars to align
Cause if you hold my hand they will
Are you looking for some kind of sign I can guarantee
If you’re waiting for lightening to strike
You gotta kiss me

Pizza hut, the Cinemark, it’s the same old thing
But this time your face is flushed and you’re stuttering
It’s obvious, you’re trying’ a get the guts
If you go ninety I’ll go ten
Chorus

Are you waiting for lightening to strike
Or the world to stand still, the stars to align
Cause if you hold my hand they will
Are you looking for some kind of sign I can guarantee
If you’re waiting for lightening to strike
And you grab my waist to shut me up

Pull me close, just close enough
And everybody knows what happens next

The lightening strikes, and the world stands still
You can see the stars align; now I know it’s real
Chorus
You gotta kiss me yeah
you gotta kiss me ohh
and he kissed me
