  • Am I coy enough?
    Not boy enough?
    You wanted me in this dress
    Or nothing else
    You say I am
    I am not scared enough
    Prepared enough
    You wanted me in distress?
    I've nothing left to fear
    I am, I am here

    I'll wait for you another night
    (As you like)
    Dressed in Himalayan white
    I'll wait for you some other night
    (Dressed as you like)
    Dressed in Himalayan white

    Am I loud too much
    And proud too much?
    You wanted me in this stance
    Or on my back
    You said I am
    I am not read enough
    In bed enough
    I've given up on romance
    I've nothing left for love
    I am, I am here

    I'll wait for you another night
    (As you like)
    Dressed in Himalayan white
    I'll wait for you some other night
    (Dressed as you like)
    Dressed in Himalayan white

    Who's to say when the cats are away
    What they say, what they say
    We won't come back
    Who's to say when the cats are away
    We won't come back
    What they say, what they say
    We won't come back
    Who's to say when we cats are away
    We won't come back
    What we say, what I say
    I won't stay

    I'll wait for you some other night
    (Dressed as you like)
    Dressed in Himalayan white
    I'll wait for you some other night
    (As you like)
    Dressed in Himalayan white

    I'll wait for you
    I'll wait for you
    (As you like)

  • Ryan from UsI think this song at least speaks to (if it is not about) unrequited love. The feelings of hopelessness, sadness, not being good enough, wondering what is wrong with you, what you did (are doing) wrong, trying to prove yourself and win their love/attention, and the struggle with self esteem.
  • Deedee from Okemos, MiIn my opinion, the song is about a virgin or someone who is sexually inexperienced and tries different ways to please her husband but in the end he leaves her to cheat. And she is broken inside, and tries to understand what she can do to fix the situation if that is even possible. She’s sad, confused, and heartbroken. I love this song and the meaning behind it.
