Lyrics
[verse]
Sitting on the curb with a used-up dime
Watching all the cars just kill the time
Somewhere down this street a door's still open
Waiting for a sign that I've been hoping
[chorus]
I'm waiting, waiting for the day to break
Waiting for a chance I'm bound to take
Waiting, but I won't wait long
Something's gotta give before too long
[verse]
Radio's playing static in my head
Everything they told me, I read instead
Not gonna sit here rusting on the shelf
I'll build the thing I'm waiting for myself
[chorus]
I'm waiting, waiting for the day to break
Waiting for a chance I'm bound to take
Waiting, but I won't wait long
Something's gotta give before too long
[bridge]
No more standing still, no more counting cracks
Every second gone is a second I don't get back
So I'm moving now, I'm moving fast
Turn the waiting into something built to last
[chorus]
I'm waiting, waiting for the day to break
Waiting for a chance I'm bound to take
Waiting, but I won't wait long
Something's gotta give before too long
