Today, two-time GRAMMY® Award-winning singer-songwriter Lauren Daigle drops her second single "Waiting" from her forthcoming self-titled album, Lauren Daigle, due out May 12, 2023. "Waiting" follows on the hels of her recent #1 single "Thank God I Do."

The creative team behind Lauren Daigle is led by Grammy®-winning producer Mike Elizondo (Twenty One Pilots, Mary J. Blige, Fiona Apple, Carrie Underwood), and includes co-writes with Natalie Hemby, Shane McAnally, Amy Wadge, Lori McKenna, Jason Ingram and Jon Greene to name a few. Lauren Daigle comprises twenty soulful and uplifting songs to be released in two parts. The first ten songs arrive May 12, and the other ten release later this year.

Here are the lyrics to "Waiting:"

[Verse 1]
"The right one's gonna come along someday"
"You're probably just getting in your own way"
These are the things people try to say
When they don't want you to wait

[Chorus]
When you wait, you're always countin'
Self-assured but somehow doubtin'
Wonderin' what you got yourself into
Toss and turn, anticipatin'
All the while, your heart is achin'
Knowin' that the day is comin' soon

[Post-Chorus]
That's what it feels like waitin' for You
That's what it feels like waitin' for You

[Verse 2]
I'm givin' up all the cares that I could give
I'm throwin' caution to the wind
Just to find out if I let it go
Will love every time

[Chorus]
When you wait, you're always countin'
Self-assured but somehow doubtin'
Wonderin' what you got yourself into
Toss and turn, anticipatin'
All the while, your heart is achin'
Knowin' that the day is comin' soon

[Post-Chorus]
That's what it feels like waitin' for You
That's what it feels like waitin' for You

[Outro]
Waitin' on, on a love like the sky waits for the sun
I'm the one who'll be waitin' for You (Oh, I'm here, I'm ready)
Waitin' on, on a love like the sky waits for the sun
I'm the one who'll be waitin' for You (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Waitin' on, on a love like the sky waits for the sun (Oh, waitin' on You; I'm waitin' on You)
I'm the one who'll be waitin' for You (Ooh oh-oh-oh-oh)
Waitin' on, on a love like the sky waits for the sun (Ooh-hoo)
I'm the one who'll be waitin' for You (Oh, I'm here, I'm ready)
Waitin' on, on a love like the sky waits for the sun (Oh, waitin' on)
I'm the one who'll be waitin' for You (Oh, this is my love, this is my love)
Waitin' on, on a love like the sky waits for the sun (Oh, waitin' on for You)
I'm the one who'll be waiting (I'm the one)
I'm the one who'll be waitin' for You
