Waiting
Love's Patient Game: Waiting for Redemption
Lyrics
You talk about how you don't miss me
You mention not missing me
Then why you writing all these songs about me?
Questioning why you're writing songs about me despite saying you don't miss me
So have her, have her
Encouragement for you to have another person
You'll be running back to me that's for sure
Predicting that despite having someone else, you'll eventually return to me
I know it hurts you
Acknowledgment of understanding your pain
I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
Expressing determination to wait for you, repeatedly emphasizing being available
I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-Right here
-I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-Right here
-Give you time
Willingness to give you time
A little space
Offering space, wondering why your emotions aren't intense
Wonder why your heart won't race
Questioning why your heart isn't racing for her
Why you keep staring at me?
Observing your continuous gaze or attention
You try to make me seem like the bad guy
Recognizing your attempts to portray me as the villain
You're not wrong but you've never been right
Acknowledging your faults, pointing out your consistent wrong decisions
Your new girl, your new girl
Reference to your new romantic interest
Stop pretending like she's your new world
Dismissing the authenticity of your affection for your new partner
I know it hurts you
Understanding the pain you're experiencing
I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
Reiteration of determination to wait for you
I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-Right here
-I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-I'm just gonna keep waiting, waiting
-Right here
-Your girl doesn't have a clue
Recognition that your current partner is unaware of your actions
Baby what you gonna do?
Rhetorical questions emphasizing the potential of deceiving your current partner
Lie to her too?
-Your girl doesn't have a clue
-Baby what you gonna do?
-Lie to her too?
-I don't think of you
Statement indicating a change in thoughts about you
Like I used to
Emphasizing the change in feelings toward you
Baby what you gonna do, baby what you gonna do
Rhetorical questioning about your actions and decisions
I know it hurts you
Reiterating understanding of your pain
Now you're sitting here waiting, waiting
Observation that you're now in a situation of waiting, similar to the singer's earlier position
Now you're sitting here waiting, waiting
-Now you're sitting here waiting, waiting
-For me
Observation that you're now waiting for the singer
