I see you floating it constantly You're making me feel like you and I could be real But then you're flipping the game You walk away and turn your back baby Stop treading on me baby 'cause I'm mystified And you know I've tried I just can't get through to you [Chorus] What you gonna do I don't know What you gonna say I ain't sure Always the same All the time Every day Played my mind I can't keep wasting my time on your game Ain't no doubt about it x4 I've taken all that I can I've given to you my all But you don't seem to respond baby Oh I can't stand all this waiting 'cause I can't stand all this waiting 'cause my patience is fading Pretty soon I'll be gone Let's rectify it You can't deny it The way that you feel for me Tell me [Chorus] I can't keep wasting my time on your game No more, no more No more wasted time Playing your game I've seen this all before Time and time, no way 'cause I'm mystified You know that I've tried I just can't get through to you [Chorus: x2] I can't keep wasting my time on your game No more, no more No more wasted time Playing your game I've seen this all before Time Ain't no doubt about it Ain't no doubt about it Ain't no doubt about it Ain't no doubt about it
