The Waiting Game Lyrics by Todd Rundgren

The Waiting Game Lyrics

    Every time that i fall for that same old trick
    I punish myself with the same old stick
    I want to believe it so badly i deceive myself
    Forgetting reality
    Ignoring the fact that you're altogether someplace else
    Forgetting reality

    But i swear here and now
    The truth shall be mine
    And surrender to my prayer
    The weapon is time

    I'll play your waiting game
    I'm gonna win the win the waiting game
    I'll play your waiting game
    I'm gonna win this game my friend
    And forget you in the end

    Your memory seems like a living thing
    I never know if i'm imagining
    I look at your face and i know that's impossible
    Forgetting it's just a dream
    Now i'm hearing your voice saying anything is possible
    Forgetting it's just a dream

    And i still can't say why
    You keep invading my mind
    But this uncontrolled fixation
    Grows weaker with time

    A cloud of unknowing floats between you and me
    A trickle of love still flows between you and me
    But we live in different galaxies

    But i swear here and now
    Your heart will be mine
    You'll surrender to my love
    My weapon is time
    And your wall of resistance
    I will slowly undermine
    While your uncontrolled fixation
    Grows stronger with time

    I'll play your waiting game
    I'm gonna win the win the waiting game
    I'll play your waiting game
    I'm gonna win this game my friend
    And i'll be with you in the end

    I'll play, yes i will
