What Are You Waiting For

(albüm: Träumen Mit Engelbert - 1986)

It's time to say goodbye
So what are you waiting for
Well my feelings are disguised
So won't you walk out that door
Hurry babe before I cry
Hurry baby before I die
A few more steps
What are you waiting for

Well you say you love me babe
So what are you leaving for
You even say you're sorry
Did you think I'd believe you more
You say you wish to still see me
Seemed silly, it's you who set me free
A few more steps
What are you waiting for

Look at you crying
Look at you shaking
What are you doing that for
We've already gone through this
No need to go out for more
And I know you're hurt but I'm hurt too
Please don't ask me to comfort you
It's you who said that we were through
Oh baby, oh baby
What are you waiting for

Oh look at you crying
Look at you shaking
What are you doing that for
We've already gone through this
No need to go out for more
And I know you're hurt but I'm hurt too
Please don't ask me to comfort you
It's you who said that we were through
Oh baby, oh baby

You said you need your freedom
So what are you staying for
You know it's your decision
You needn't explain no more
If I'm strong enough to stand here tall
Then why can't you be strong at all
It's time to say goodbye
Come on before I cry
Oh baby before I die
What are you waiting for
