I've spent too much time Waiting for you in vain I can't hear your voice Although I call your name I can't go on but I still hang on just the same I've spent endless nights Crying you name out loud But still remain Alone in an empty crowd As time goes on I realize you'll never change I say a prayer I count the hours I hear a voice but it's not yours I count the score I can't go on playing the waiting game If you should ever change your mind I'll be there just call my name Until then I'll be playing the waiting game I've waited too long Wishing my life away Convincing myself Tomorrow you'd change your ways I can't go on but I still hang on just the same I say a prayer I count the hours I hear a voice but it's not yours I count the score I can't go on playing the waiting game All you left me with emptiness Now everyday seems the same You've gone but I'm still playing the waiting game If you should ever change your mind I'll be there just call my name Until then I'll be playing the waiting game I've waited too long for you to change your ways Playing the waiting game All you left me with emptiness Now everyday seems the same You've gone but I'm still playing the waiting game If you should ever change your mind I'll be there just call my name Until then I'll be playing the waiting game

A música foi lançada em 1989 pela gravadora Fontana Records, como o terceiro single do álbum *Kaleidoscope World*.
Apesar de ter sido lançada internacionalmente, *Waiting Game* nunca chegou ao mercado britânico.
É a sexta faixa da faixa-título do segundo disco da banda, indicando a importância do tema dentro da estrutura da obra.
O single foi escrito e produzido pelos próprios membros da banda, Andy Connell e Corinne Drewery, reforçando o controle artístico do duo sobre sua produção musical.
O fato de a canção não ter sido lançada no Reino Unido evidencia a estratégia de distribuição diferenciada adotada pela Swing Out Sister na época.
Como parte do álbum *Kaleidoscope World*, *Waiting Game* contribui para o estilo pop característico da banda em seu trabalho de 1989.
