Lyrics:

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 I'm just a fool

And in love with 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 amuntintion

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



Chorus

Must I always be waiting, waiting on you

Must I always be playing, playing your fool
