You're electric
And I'm out in the rainstorm
You're the virus
That's running through my veins
You're a danger
Like love and radiation
Seeping into my brain

You're the one I've been waiting for
You're my rocket to the sky
You're the diving board
Standing seven stories high
You're the thrill of love
Like a jet on fire
Push me out and see if I can fly.

You're the ocean
About to pull me under
You're the surgeon
Who says "It's got to bleed."
You're the true love
I've always been afraid of
But you're the one I need.

You're the one I've been waiting for
You're my rocket to the sky
You're the diving board
Standing seven stories high
You're the thrill of love
Like a jet on fire
Push me out and see if I can fly.

<modest 4-bar guitar bridge>

You're the passion
Crashing my defenses.
And I'm defenseless to you.

You're the one I've been waiting for
You're my rocket to the sky
You're the diving board
Standing seven stories high
You're the thrill of love
Like a jet on fire
Push me out to fly.

You're the one I've been waiting for
All these days and all my life.
You're the diving board
Standing seven stories high
You're the thrill of love
Like a jet on fire
Push me out and see if I can fly.
