Waiting on the Phone opens the album with mirrored anxiety — Amy and Zane in separate corners after that first kiss, both convinced the other one's already moved on, both too scared to be the one who reaches out first. A split-perspective duet about the agony of the in-between. Original by Saddle Storms.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1 - FEMALE]

Phone lit up,

my heart jumped high

Just an app, not him,

not this time

I keep telling myself it's fine

But I've checked that screen forty times

[Verse 2 - MALE]

Out here shoveling feed at dawn

Can't get her outta my head

I kissed her and then she was gone

Now I'm second-guessing everything I said

[Pre-Chorus - DUET, overlapping]

[FEMALE]Was it real, or just the whiskey talking?

[MALE] Was it real, or did I read it wrong?

[Chorus - DUET]

We're both just waiting on the phone

Both too proud to make the call

Sitting in our separate corners

Same doubt hanging over us all

Waiting on the phone to ring

Waiting on a sign,

anything Two stubborn hearts,

both afraid to lose

Both too scared to choose

[Verse 3 - FEMALE]

She says he'll call if he's worth his salt

I say maybe he already moved on

I clean the counters,

fold the towels

Anything to keep my mind from spinning too long

[Verse 4 - MALE]

He says quit your moping around

Man up and go find your answer

I keep chewing on his words

Like a dog that won't let go of the matter

[Chorus - DUET]

We're both just waiting on the phone

Both too proud to make the call

Sitting in our separate corners

Same doubt hanging over us all

Waiting on the phone to ring

Waiting on a sign, anything

Two stubborn hearts,

both afraid to lose

Both too scared to choose

[Bridge - MALE] Maybe I stop waiting

[Bridge - FEMALE] Maybe I stop guessing

[Bridge - DUET] Maybe it's time somebody Finally says what they're feeling

[Outro - DUET]

No more waiting on the phone...

No more guessing all alone.
