Sitting, waiting, wishing

Well, I was sitting,
Waiting, wishing
You believed
In superstitions
Then maybe
You'd see the sings
The Lord knows that
This world is cruel
I ain't the Lord
I'm just a fool
And in love 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
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
I can't always be waiting
Waiting on you
I can't always be playing
Playing your fool
I keep playing your part
But it's not my scene
Want this part 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 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
