I was sitting, waiting, wishing
|
You believed in superstitions
|
Then maybe you'd see the signs.
|
|
Lord knows that this world is cruel
|
And I ain't the lord, no I'm just a fool
|
Learning lovin somebody don't make them love you.
|
|
Chorus
|
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you
|
Must I always be playing, playing your fool.
|
|
I sang your songs, I danced your dance
|
I gave your friends, all a chance
|
Putting up with them wasn't worth never having you
|
|
Oh, maybe you've been through this before
|
But it's my first time, so please ignore
|
The next few lines, cause they're directed at you.
|
|
Chorus
|
I can't always be waiting, waiting on you
|
I can't always be playing, playing your fool.
|
|
Bridge
|
I keep playing your part
|
But it's not my scene
|
Want this plot to twist
|
I've had enough mystery
|
Keep building it up
|
Then shooting me down
|
But I'm already down
|
|
Just wait a minute
|
Just sitting, waiting
|
Just wait a minute
|
Just sitting, waiting
|
|
Well if I was in your position
|
I'd put down all my ammunition
|
I'd wonder why it had taken me so long
|
|
But Lord knows that I'm not you
|
and if I was I wouldn't be so cruel
|
cause waitin' on love ain't so easy to do
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you
|
Must I always be playing, playing your fool
|
No I can't always be waiting, waiting on you
|
I can't always be playing, playing your fool, fool
|
