Jack Johnson – Sitting Waiting Wishing Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:1 Minute, 15 Second

Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing
You believed in superstitions
Then maybe youd see the signs

But Lord knows that this world is cruel
And I aint the Lord, no Im just a fool
Learning loving somebody dont make them love you

Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?

I sang your songs, I danced your dance
I gave your friends all a chance
Putting up with them wasnt worth never having you

Ah, maybe youve been through this before
But its my first time, so please ignore
The next few lines cause theyre directed at you

I cant always be waiting, waiting on you
I cant always be playing, playing your fool

I keep playing your part
But its not my scene
Want this plot to twist
Ive had enough mystery
Keep building it up
But then youre shooting me down
But Im already down

Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting

Well, if I was in your position
Id put down all my ammunition
Id wonder why it had taken me so long
But Lord knows that Im not you
And if I was I wouldnt be so cruel
Cause waiting on love aint so easy to do

Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?
No, I cant always be waiting, waiting on you
I cant always be playing, playing your fool, fool
