Just meet me in the middle
Why you gotta be like that?
Just try to keep it civil, ah, ah
Why you gotta be like that?
Just meet me in the middle
Why you gotta be like that?
Just try to keep it civil

I've been waiting by the phone
I've been waiting all night long

I've been waiting all night long (it's a late night)
(It's a late night, no day, no)
I've been waiting on the phone
I've been waiting
