Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It’s getting late, but I’m still here
Watching for a sign that you are near
I’ve checked the time, I’ve checked the glass
But you’re moving slow and the hours pass
I gave you warmth, I gave you space
Still, I can’t see enough change in your face
Everybody says to let you be
But waiting never came that easily
[Pre-Chorus]
Should I hold on a little longer?
Should I walk away tonight?
Every bubble gives me hope
Then you barely even rise
[Chorus]
How long am I supposed to wait?
Tell me, will you ever change?
I’ve been standing at this counter
Watching hours fade away
I could shape you, but I know
If I rush, I’ll let you down
So I’ll keep waiting for the moment
You’re finally ready now
I’ll wait until you’re ready
Even if it takes all night
I’ll wait until you’re ready
Just give me one more sign
[Verse 2]
I draw a line to measure where we’ve been
Then thirty minutes pass—I check again
You’re looking smoother, maybe that means more
Or maybe I’m just seeing what I’m hoping for
I shake the bowl to see you move
That little jiggle’s got me so confused
You cling around the edges, soft and strong
But how am I supposed to know how long?
[Pre-Chorus]
They say love can’t be controlled
And neither can fermentation
But I’ve refreshed the same damn chart
At least a hundred times with no explanation
[Chorus]
How long am I supposed to wait?
Tell me, will you ever change?
I’ve been standing at this counter
Watching hours fade away
I could shape you, but I know
If I rush, I’ll let you down
So I’ll keep waiting for the moment
You’re finally ready now
I’ll wait until you’re ready
Even if it takes all night
I’ll wait until you’re ready
Just give me one more sign
[Bridge]
Maybe my kitchen’s colder
Maybe my starter lied
Maybe that feeding ratio
Was never really right
But I won’t let my impatience
Undo everything we’ve made
I’d rather lose a little sleep
Than shape you too soon again
So rise for me
Just rise for me
Give me bubbles at the edge
And pull away clean
Oh, rise for me
I’m down here on my knees
Give me thirty percent
Baby, that’s all I need
[Final Chorus]
How long am I supposed to wait?
I think I finally see the change
You’re domed and airy at the edges
And you’re jiggling all the way
Now I’ll turn you on the counter
And I’ll shape you like I should
I knew that you were worth the waiting
Baby, bulk is finally good
I waited till you were ready
Though it took me half the night
I waited till you were ready—
And this time
I got it right
[Outro]
The house is dark
The clock says two
But I stayed awake
And waited on you
