Kali Uchis - Worth The Wait (feat. Omar Apollo)
[Chorus: Omar Apollo & Kali Uchis]
I want to be around you every day
This feeling in my body's not the same (Same)
Are you still down?
[Verse 1: Kali Uchis]
The mirror's on my ceiling (Ha-hah-hah)
So I can watch you top me (Ha-hah-hah)
Deep in my knees I got weak
Baby, you know I'm a freak
Wanna get naughty, nasty
And treat you, oh, so right
Every day and every night, I do
(I do, I can't get rid of you)
(Like gum stuck to my shoe)
And don't say you got to go
Baby, take off my clothes
'Cause I got somethin' to show ya
Show you the things that words cannot say
Show you it was worth the wait
I think you deserve a taste (A taste, a taste)
[Chorus: Omar Apollo & Kali Uchis]
(I wanna be around)
I want to be around you everyday (Day-ay-ay-ay)
This feeling in my body's not the same (Same)
Are you still down? (La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la, la-la)

Most people don't know how to love, that's why they're empty
Nothing will ever be enough, that's why they envy
Gotta be careful with my heart because I love deep
Quit tellin' me you wanna put a baby in me
If your affection for me's truly only skin-deep
I don't wanna end up just another broken family
(You would never do that to me, would you, baby?)
[Chorus: Omar Apollo & Kali Uchis]
(I wanna be around)
I want to be around you everyday (Day-ay-ay-ay)
This feeling in my body's not the same (Same)
Are you still down?

Overall, "Worth the Wait" is a passionate love song that explores the highs and lows of love and relationships, and emphasizes the importance of trust and honesty in a deep, meaningful connection.
