Текст песни The Waiting Game - Roberta Flack

The Waiting Game

I like to make you, make you wait
And I never wanna seal my fate
I am undecided as before
You think I'm rotten to the core

First you say you love me (Oh yeah)
Than you say it's only (Oh yeah)
A temporary passing thing
Just physical attraction
A lotta mixed emotions (Oh yeah)
To keep your options open (Oh yeah)
And buy a little time to try all sides
And keep me guessing

I should be mad at all those things you say to hurt me
But I see they leave you hurting too

You're caught up in the middle
So in love but so afraid
How long are we gonna play
The waiting game? (It's a game)
Think of me a little
Make your mind up either way
I don't wanna have to play
The waiting game (Oh no)

I like to make you, make you wait
And I never wanna seal my fate
I am undecided as before
You think I'm rotten to the core

Baby, this is senseless (Oh yeah)
I'm totally defenseless (Oh yeah)
How you gonna fight someone
Who's changing every minute?
I'm running out or patience (Oh yeah)
It's time to change the station (Oh yeah)
Look me in the eye and say goodbye
If your heart ain't in it

'Cause going 'round in circles with no ending or beginning
Is worse that anything you'd choose

You're caught up in the middle (Caught up in the middle)
So in love but so afraid
How long are we gonna play
The waiting game? (The waiting game)
Think of me a little (Think of me)
Make your mind up either way
I don't wanna have to play
The waiting game (The waiting game)
Baby, you're a riddle (Baby, you're a riddle)
More confusing every day
How long do we gotta play
The waiting game?

Around and round and round we go
Where it stops, I wanna know
Make up your mind, don't sink so low
I'm waiting
Ooh, I love you (Love you)
You got to know

Before you leave it all, I know you love me too
Can you feel it?
It's right before your eyes
Can you feel it?

The waiting game

Caught up in the middle
So in love but so afraid
How long are we gonna play
The waiting game? (The waiting game)
Think of me a little (Think of me)
Make your mind up either way
I don't wanna have to play
The waiting game (Waiting game)
Waiting game (The waiting game)
The waiting game
Around and round and round we go
Caught up in the middle (Ooh yeah)
So in love but so afraid
How long are we gonna play
The waiting game? (The waiting game)
Think of me a little (Think of me)
Make your mind up either way (Make up your mind)
I don't wanna have to play
The waiting game (The waiting game)
Baby, you're a riddle (Baby, you're a riddle)
More confusing every day
How long do we gotta play
The waiting game? (The waiting game)

Caught up in the middle
So in love but so afraid
How long are we gonna play
The waiting game? (The waiting game)
Think of me a little (Think of me)
Make your mind up either way
I don't wanna have to play
The waiting game
