We Are Scientists - Worth The Wait Lyrics

If I had one shred of common sense
I would have already left
Don't ask how long I've been waiting here
Yeah, you can probably guess

Tracing the arc of the hour hand
This clock's incredibly slow
You ask how long I've been waiting here
I think you already know

'Cause I've been hanging out and counting down
The time that I've been wasting
I've been holding on for way too long
You're always worth the wait though, I guess

Measure in time by the bottle
And I've had more than a few
I'm standing up to get outta here
I'm standing up for myself now and this is long overdue

There ain't no two ways about it
I can't keep letting this go
You ask how long I've been waiting here
I think you already know

'Cause I've been hanging out and counting down
The time that I've been wasting
I've been holding on for way too long
You're always worth the wait though

And oh, promising a promise
If you know you're gonna break it
I've been holding on for way too long
You're always worth the wait though, I guess

Well, I keep hanging out and counting down
The time that I've been wasting
I've been holding on for way too long
You're always worth the wait though

And oh, promising a promise
If you know you're gonna break it
I've been holding on for way too long
You're always worth the wait though, I guess
