You’re not here
You’re not here
Well, of course you’re not
It’s still
Two hours to go
Got here way too early
Couldn’t help myself today
Heart is beating faster
Trying not to show my face
Guess I’ll take a little walk
Find the place we’re going to
Turn the corner
Walk ahead
There it is
Checked the door
Checked the street
Now I know just where we’ll meet
Walking back like nothing’s up
Like this is just another day
Trying hard to hide the way
I’m floating somewhere far away
Keep it cool
Just play it cool
Not yet
Not yet
How many times
Have I checked the time?
But hey
Waiting is part of the date
I already started without you
Waiting is part of the date
Even alone, today feels brand new
When I finally see you
I know I won’t stop smiling
Still I’m gonna try
To play it cool
How much longer
Till the time we said?
Two hours left
That’s a while
But hey
Waiting is part of the date
All those minutes moving slowly
Suddenly are flying by
Now it’s almost time to meet you
And I’m nervous, don’t know why
Gotta find myself a mirror
One last check before you come
Hair looks good
Shirt looks fine
Yeah, I think I’m done
Window glass will have to do
Fix my hair and check it twice
Take a breath
And wear that look
Like everything is totally fine
Keep it cool
Just play it cool
Are you here?
Almost here?
Then my phone lights up
I read your message
Running a little late
Running late?
I really don’t mind
Because our date
Already started in my mind
Waiting is part of the date
Guess we just made it a little longer
Waiting is part of the date
Every minute makes the feeling stronger
When I finally see you
I know I won’t stop smiling
So until then
I’ll play it cool
Which way will you come from?
Maybe there
Maybe here
Someone looks a bit like you
My heart jumps
Nope
Not you
Check my phone
Check the time
Look up at the street again
Any minute now
Waiting is part of the date
Even when you’re not beside me
Waiting is part of the date
All these butterflies will be a memory
I don’t care if you’re a little late
I know that you’ll be here
And knowing that
Is more than enough for me
When I finally see you
I know I won’t stop smiling
So one last time
I’ll play it cool
Waiting is part of the date
Are you here?
Almost here?
Oh!
...Nope

Waiting Is Part of the Date
51
The main character arrives two hours early for a date. He checks the way to the restaurant, looks for a mirror, watches the clock again and again, and tries his best to stay calm. But in his heart, the date has already begun. A bright and sweet love song about the excitement of waiting, the butterflies before meeting someone special, and the little moments that become part of the date itself. The song ends before they finally meet, leaving that anticipation alive until the very last moment.
