Squeeze - The Waiting Game Lyrics
(difford/tilbrook)I heard the stomping of feet dancingOn the wooden floor upstairsI wasnt in the mood for laughingSo I sat silent in my chairThere was someone missing I knewOutside there fell the rainWhere had she gone, what could I doI played the waiting gameThe cigarette smoke was annoyingMy mood was fit for a bathA drink couldnt oil my expressionNothing could make me laughI was worried out of my headI was in such a stateWhats keeping her, where has she goneI played the waiting gameWhen you love someoneYou worry when theyre lateWhen you love someoneYou know the time it takesTo play the waiting gameThe music got louder and louderFrom the wooden floor upstairsI played with a handful of peanutsWhen I saw her standing thereMy mood leapt right out of the bathShe had got stuck in the rainHer coat dripped on a hangerPlaying the waitingI couldnt understand herPlaying the waitingSeemed like Id wait foreverPlaying the waiting game
