I took my board, went to the beach Sat in the sand, looked at the sea There came this pretty girl Stopped and sat down beside me I said I was waiting for a wave She said, "Waiting for a wave is okay But some people spend all their lives here waiting" She asked me if I liked to take chances I looked at her and said "Girl, let me take your hand now I'll show you what I've got Then show you 'round the world" I said I was waiting for a wave She said, "Waiting for a wave is okay But some people spend all their lives here waiting" Waiting Waiting for nothing I said they're waiting Waiting Waiting for nothing Waiting Keep waiting Waiting for nothing I'm waiting Waiting, waiting Waiting for nothing
