Waited a Long Time closes the album — the first real dance, by the fire pit, no crowd, no stage, no guitar between them. Just them finally slow-dancing to nothing but the quiet, and realizing it was worth every song he never got around to singing her before. Original by Saddle Storms.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1 - MALE]

Played a hundred songs on a hundred stages

Never once asked you to dance

Guess I was waiting for the right kind of quiet

The right kind of second chance

[Verse 2 - FEMALE]

I've watched you up there under the lights

Singing songs that weren't quite for me

But here by the fire, no crowd, no stage

This one finally feels like it's just for we

[Chorus - DUET]

I've waited a long time for this

A long time to hold you this way

No guitar between us,

no crowd to please

Just firelight and quiet and this slow sway

Waited a long time

Turns out it was worth the wait

[Verse 3 - MALE]

Feel your hand resting soft on my shoulder

Feel the world go a little bit still

Never thought a dance by a fire

Could mean more than a stage ever will

[Chorus - DUET]

I've waited a long time for this

A long time to hold you this way

No guitar between us, no crowd to please

Just firelight and quiet and this slow sway

Waited a long time

Turns out it was worth the wait

[Bridge - FEMALE, soft]

Let 'em holler,

let 'em tease

I don't care who's watching now

[Bridge - MALE, soft]

Just glad I finally got this dance

Just glad you're here somehow

[Final Chorus - DUET, tender]

Waited a long time for this

And I'd wait a hundred more

If it meant I'd end up right here

Right here on this floor

[Outro]

Worth the wait...

Worth every song

I never sang you before.
