The Waiting Game — текст песни (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 youre 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



Ill play your waiting game

Im gonna win the win the waiting game

Ill play your waiting game

Im gonna win this game my friend

And forget you in the end



Your memory seems like a living thing

I never know if Im imagining

I look at your face and I know thats impossible

Forgetting its just a dream

Now Im hearing your voice saying anything is possible

Forgetting its just a dream



And I still cant 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

Youll 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



Ill play your waiting game

Im gonna win the win the waiting game

Ill play your waiting game

Im gonna win this game my friend

And Ill be with you in the end



Ill play, yes I will
