Killing Time
Destiny's Child · Love Songs [2013]
Hoping that you're ok
Waiting patiently
For you to come back to me
(What should I do)
And I don't mind the waiting
As long as there's stillmaybe
A possibility
For you to be true to me
1 - I'll be sitting on the stairway
Til a quater til two
With nothing to do baby, yeah
But twiddle my thumbs and think
2 - Killing time, waiting on you
What should I do
I'll be sitting here waiting
Killing time, waiting on you
What should I do
I'll be sitting here waiting
Look inside your mirror
I hope that you see clearer
Then look behind yourself
And you will find me
(What should I do)
I got your back baby
The love I have I'm saving
I'll be there for you
Just like I said I'll be here
Repeat 1
Repeat 2
Oh baby when you come back down
Don't forget the love you found in me
I know that you're gonna take time
But remember I'm by your side
Don't worry I'm down for you
No matter what you're going through
I'll be there, I'll be there
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Repeat 2 (til end of song)
