Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing
You believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs
The Lord knows that this world is cruel
I ain't the Lord, no I'm just a fool
Learning lovin' 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
But putting up with them
Wasn't worth never having you
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
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you
Must I always be playing, playing your fool
I keep playing your part but it's not my scene
Want this plot to twist I've had enough mystery
You 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
I don't mind you coming here,
wasting all my time
Cause when you're standing oh so near
I kinda lose my mind, yeah
It's not the perfume that you wear
It's not the ribbons in your hair
I don't mind you coming here,
wasting all my time
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you
Must I always be playing, playing your fool
No, I can't I always be waiting, waiting on you
I can't always be playing, playing your fool
