The Waiting Game Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I heard the stomping of feet dancing
On the wooden floor upstairs
I wasn't in the mood for laughing
So I sat silent in my chair

[Chorus 1]
There was someone missing I knew
Outside there fell the rain
Where had she gone? What could I do?
I played the waiting game

[Verse 2]
The cigarette smoke was annoying
My mood was fit for a bath
A drink couldn't oil my expression
Nothing could make me laugh

[Chorus 2]
I was worried out of my head
I was in such a state
What's keeping her? Where has she gone?
I played the waiting game

[Bridge]
When you love someone
You worry when they're late
When you trust someone
You know the time it takes
To play the waiting game
To play the waiting game, oh

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
The music got louder and louder
From the wooden floor upstairs
I played with a handful of peanuts
When I saw her standing there

[Outro]
My mood lept right out of the bath
She had got stuck in the rain
Her coat dripped on a hanger
Playing the waiting
I couldn't understand her
Playing the waiting
Seemed like I'd wait forever
Playing the waiting game
