==Overview==
==Overview==
"Waiting For You" was originally written around January of [[1994]], according to the [[Catalog O' Riffs]], in close proximity to the writing of the songs "[[Susanne]]" and "[[Getchoo]]". The demo from this era appeared on the compilation ''[[Alone III]]'', released in 2011. During the writing of the ultimately-scrapped concept album, ''[[Songs From the Black Hole]]'', the song's lyrics were reworked to be sung from the perspective of the female character, [[Maria]], who becomes pregnant with the child of the main character, [[Jonas]]. The song, with its original lyrics, was eventually released as a [[List of Weezer b-sides and bonus tracks|b-side]] on the European CD single release of [[The Good Life]] (also released as an EP in Australia) in [[1996]], as well as the Deluxe Edition of ''[[Pinkerton]]'' in [[2010]].
