lyrics | learn to sing Sitting, Waiting, Wishing

I was sitting, waiting, did you believe in superstitions?

Baby, don't you see the sun?

The Lord knows that, that world is cruel

But I ain't the Lord, I'm just a fool

I'm loving with nobody's only dear love

I can't go on waiting, waiting, waiting on you

I can always wait and wait in your room

Sing a song, dance your dance

Give your friends all a chance

But know that then it was never going to happen

Oh, maybe you've done this before

But it's not just now, so please don't go

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

You're building me up, but it's not my scene

With your silky brows, I've had enough misery

Keep building it up, and shooting me down

But I'm already down, just wait a minute

Save a minute

Save a minute

Now if I was in your position

I'd put down all my ammunition

And wonder why it's taking me so long

The 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

I can always be waiting, waiting on you

Must I always be playing, playing your fool

No, I can always be waiting, waiting on you

Must I always be playing, playing your fool
