We ll I was sitting, waiting, wishing
You believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd seen the signs
Th e Lord knows that this wo rld is cruel
and ain't the Lord, I'm just a fool
fall in love with somebody don't make
them love you
Must I a lways be wa iting,
waiting on you
Must I a lways be pl aying,
playing your foo l
I sang your songs, I d anced your dance
I gave your friends all a chance
Putting up with them wasn't worth
never having you
oh maybe you've been throu gh this before
But it's my first time so please ignore
These next few lines because
they're directed at you
I can't always be w aiting,
waiting on you
I can't always be p laying,
playing your foo l
I keep playing your par t
But it's not my scene
Want this plot to twist
I've had enough mystery
Keep building it u p
Then shooting me down
But I'm already down
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Just wait a minu te
Just sitting, waiting
Well if I was in your p osition
I'd put down all my amuntintion
I'd wonder why it had taken me so long
But the lo rd 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
Must I a lways be wa iting,
waiting on you
Must I a lways be pl aying,
playing your foo l
no I can't alw ays be wait ing,
waiting on you
I can't a lways be pl aying,
playing your foo l foo l
