The Waiting Game Lyrics - Todd Rundgren

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 

My 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

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

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 

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 

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 

Photos 

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 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 again 

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 again 

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 again
