The Waiting Game
FOUR LONG YEARS YOU'VE BEEN IN PAIN
WAITING HOPING ALL IN VAIN
LIKE A COBRA WAITING TO STRIKE
WAITING FOR THE ONE YOU LIKE
THE HURT YOU FEEL IS TURNING TO HATE
WILL THIS BE YOUR ONLY FATE
HERE YOU ARE GOING OUT OF YOUR WAY
HOPING THAT YOUR LOVE WILL STAY
OFF WITH EVERY BOY IN TOWN
THIS GIRL HAS JUST LET YOU DOWN
YOU COMFORTED THEM WHEN THEY WAS DOWN
WALKED ALL THE WAY TO A FAR AWAY TOWN
YOU WERE THE SUPPORT THE CRYING SHOULDER
BUT NOW YOU ARE A LITTLE OLDER
WISER TO THIS FRIENDSHIP GAME
YOU WANT MORE ITS NOT THE SAME
SO YOU HAD TO CHANGE YOUR WAY OF LIVING
TURN AWAY AND STOP THE GIVING
IT WASN'T BECAUSE YOU WERE BEING CRUEL
YOU HAD TO RUN YOUR ONLY RULE
GIVING WAS YOUR ONLY CRIME
DON'T YOU WORRY YOUR BE FINE.
