Lyrics

[Intro]

I can't help but wait

Oh, I can't help but wait

Check it out, uh

[Verse 1]

I see you, you with him

He ain't right but you don't trip

You stand by while he lies

Then turn right 'round and forgive

[Verse 2]

I can't take to see your face

With those tears runnin' down your cheeks

But what can I do?

I gotta stay true

'Cause deep down, I'm still a G

[PreChorus]

And I don't want to come between you and your man

Even though I know I treat you better than he can

[Chorus]

Girl, I can't help but wait

Till you get back with him, it don't change

Can't help but wait

Till you see that with me it ain't the same

Can't help but wait

Till you see you for what you really are

Baby girl, you are a star

And I can't help but wait

[Verse 3]

Listen, it ain't fresh to just let him call the shots

You're a queen, you should be

Gettin' all that someone's got

You should be rockin' the latest in purses

Bracelets and watches

You're worth much more than an occasional

"I love you, I'm thinking of you"

[PreChorus]

And I don't wanna come between you and your man, no

Even though I know I treat you better than he can

[Chorus]

Girl, I can't help but wait

Till you get back with him, it don't change

Can't help but wait

Till you see that with me it ain't the same

Can't help but wait

Till you see you for what you really are

Baby girl, you are a star

And I can't help but wait

[Bridge]

Get it together, you can do better

Seeing's believin'

And I see what you need, so

I'm gon' play my position

Let you catch what you've been missing

I'm calling out

[Chorus]

Girl, 'cause I can't help but wait

Till you get back with him, it don't change

Can't help but wait

Till you see that with me it ain't the same

Can't help but wait

Till you see you for what you really are

Baby girl, you are a star

And I can't help but wait

[Chorus]

Till you get back with him, it don't change

Can't help but wait

Till you see that with me it ain't the same

Can't help but wait

Till you see you for what you really are

Baby girl, you are a star

And I can't help but wait

[Outro]

Oh, can't help but wait, babe

No, no, no, no, no, no

I can't help but wait

Oh-oh-oh

Can't help but wait

No, no, no
