Waiting Game - Swing Out Sister

I'm thinking it over The way you make me feel all sexy but it's causing me shame I wanna lean on your shoulder I wish I was allowed but I don't wanna cause any pain And if I'm feeling like I'm evil, we've got nothing to gain What if I never even see you 'cause we're both on a stage? Don't tell me listen to your song because it isn't the same I don't wanna say your love is a waiting game Baby I'm thinking it over What if the way we started made it something cursed from the start? What if it only gets colder Would you still wrap me up and tell me that you think this was smart 'Cause lately I've been scared of even thinking 'bout where we are What if I never even see you 'cause we're both on a stage? Don't tell me listen to your song because it isn't the same I don't wanna say your love is a waiting game What if I never even see you 'cause we're both on a stage Don't tell me listen to your song because it isn't the same I don't wanna say your love is a waiting game

I know you're in pain And I'm the fucking same Six days and I'll be flying home Diagnosed insane You're worrying all day Another date that I'll postpone I know you hate it I know you hate it You're always waiting You're always waiting And right when you need me Right when you need me I'm gone before you need me most We're going insane in this waiting game, so please don't give it up We don't wanna lose, we don't wanna bruise, so please don't give it up And I know you're in pain and I'm the fucking same, but no one has this kind of love We're going insane in this waiting game, so please don't give it up Maybe I'm scared 'bout who you think of when you close your eyes I'm borderline, lost and kind of fucked up, so don't say goodbye (Yeah) I'm too dramatic, oh, I can't stand it So problematic, can't fix this damage It's sad that I need you, sad, sad that I need you Sad that I need you most We're going insane in this waiting game, so please don't give it up We don't wanna lose, we don't wanna bruise, so please don't give it up And I know you're in pain and I'm the fucking same, but no one has this kind of love We're going insane in this waiting game, so please don't give it up (Please don't give it up) Scared you're gonna leave, gonna leave, oh Scared you're gonna leave, gonna leave, oh Scared you're gonna leave, gonna leave, oh Scared you're gonna leave, gonna leave, oh Scared you're gonna leave, gonna leave, oh Scared you're gonna leave, gonna leave, oh Scared you're gonna leave, gonna leave, oh We're going insane in this waiting game, so please don't give it up We don't wanna lose, we don't wanna bruise, so please don't give it up We're going insane in this waiting game, so please don't give it up We don't wanna lose, we don't wanna bruise So please don't give it up (please don't give it up) And I know you're in pain and I'm the fucking same But no one has this kind of love (no one has this kind of love) We're going insane in this waiting game, so please don't give it up

I've reached a decision It's time to rearrange my life We're speaking the same words Although their meaning has changed You're telling me what I want to hear But what's the use when we just don't share The same emotions that brought us together aren't there In this world, nothing lasts forever Was it you who changed or me Should we go our separate ways or stay together Believe me when I say I'm not gonna change I'm not gonna change now If you walk away There's no turning back now I look in the mirror And see a reflection that isn't me It's hard to remember the girl that used to be me In this world, nothing lasts forever Was it you who changed or me Should we go our separate ways or stay together Believe me when I say I'm not gonna change I'm not gonna change now If you walk away There's no turning back now I'm not gonna change I'm not gonna change now If you walk away There's no turning back now (Inst. Break) In this world, nothing lasts forever Was it you who changed or me Should we go our separate ways or stay together Believe me when I say I'm not gonna change I'm not gonna change now If you walk away There's no turning back now I'm not gonna change I'm not gonna change now If you walk away There's no turning back now I'm not gonna change I'm not gonna change now If you walk away There's no turning back now Repeat Fade

Day time surrenders And the shadows fall You're cigarette lingers You spent the night alone With no one at all Another mellow mood And the silence calls Another fleeting glance Another call long distance To no one at all No one at all Day time surrenders And the shadows call You're cigarette lingers You spend the night alone With no one at all After hours, after hours

Another strange awakening Another memory on its way Another night in an empty room Another throw away day How long Must I go on fooling myself In a world of make-believe Precious words Are all that I have left to prove That I've nothing more left to lose Precious words won't bring you back to me Precious words won't bring you back to me Loneliness says much more Than a thousand words ever said Conversations pass me by I'm left with silence instead How long must I go on fooling myself In a world of make-believe Precious words Are all that I have left to prove That I've nothing more left to lose Precious words won't bring you back to me Precious words won't bring you back to me You left my world empty Now there's nothing to say Precious words Won't bring you back to me... How long Must I go on fooling myself In a world of make-believe Precious words Are all that I have left to prove That I've nothing more left to lose Precious words won't bring you back to me Precious words won't bring you back to me You left my world empty Now there's nothing to say Precious words Won't bring you back to me
