Alan Jackson

The One You're Waiting On

Is he tall? Is he handsome?

Does he make enough and then some

Does he miss you every minute that he's gone

Is he funny? Is he witty?

Does he tell you that you're pretty

Did he hang the moon? Did he do no wrong?

Is he Mr. Right, I wonder what he's like

The one you're waiting on

'Cause there's an empty seat beside you

And every guy here's trying to buy you

Something to drink, but you just keep brushing them off

You're watching whatever's on cable

Swirling your glass on the table

Wondering how long is too long

Is he working late? Is he worth the wait?

The one you're waiting on

How many glasses of Cabernet

How many minutes slip away

How many times were you gonna check your phone

I'm telling you if you were mine

You wouldn't be sitting here counting the time

You'd never spend a single moment alone

I bet he don't get how lucky he is

The one you're waiting on

How many glasses of Cabernet

How many boys can you turn away

How long 'til you turn off your phone

And look up at me, I'd be happy to be

The one you're waiting on

I'd be happy to be

The one you're waiting on
