While I was sitting waiting wishing
That you believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs
But Lord knows that this world is cruel
And ain't the Lord,
know I'm just a fool
Learning loving somebody
don't make them love you

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
And maybe you been through this before
But it's my first time
So please ignore
The next few lines cause
they're directed at you

I can't always be waiting
waiting on you
I can't always be playing
playing your fool
I keep playing your part
But its not my scene
Won't this plot not twist?
I've had enough mystery.
Keep building me up,
then shooting me down
Well im already down
Just wait a minute
Just sitting waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting waiting

Well if I was in your position
Id put down all my ammunition
I'd wondered
why'd it taken me so long
But Lord knows that I'm not you
And If I was I wouldn't be so cruel
Cause waiting on love ain't so easy to do

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..
