Waitin' for the phone to ring
Been waitin' for that call
Waitin' tables in the daytime
Waitin' mornings for the train

Waitin' for my check to clear
So I can pay the rent
Waitin' to win the lottery
Got my fingers crossed again

Waitin' for the sun to rise
Been a long cold winter
Need some sunlight on my face

Chorus
We're all waiting, playin' the waiting game
We're all playing, playin' the waiting game

Verse 2

Waitin' in traffic for the light to change
I'm runnin' late again
Waitin' to find a parking space
My patience is wearing thin

Waiting for inspiration
Waiting for an invitation
Waiting for someone to knock me off my feet

Chorus
