Waiting
Griffin L.O.G. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I mean to say I never love someone like you
I'm tryin hard to make you stay
Even if you think I'm bustin
Mama won't you hang around?
Eventhough I know you've gone insane
I don't want to live without you babe.
[Chorus:]
Just waiting for you to come around
Just waiting for you to come around
Just waiting for you to come around
Just waiting for you to come around
But you just keep on tellin' me
That I'm not your kind of man
I hope you find what your lookin' for
But what could I?
Getting' tired of hangin out
Standin' on the corner for the end of time
Hangin for some seconds in the soup kitchen line
I'm too tired.
Chorus:
Waiting for you to come around
Just waiting for you to come around
-You ain't showin' me no love-
Waiting for you to come around
-No you ain't comin' down-
Waiting for you to come around
-Lord Lord Lord
(Instrumental)
won't you put me out my misery baby
I won't tell you never been too good at talkin' any how
But I'm not so good supposed to wait for a girl
To become the woman that she want to be I waited five long years, pretty mama
Tell me when you gonna wait for me?
No no no no no
No no no no no
Too tired.
[Chorus:]
Waiting for you to come around
Just waiting' for you to come around
Just waiting' for you to come around
-All my friends sayin' you ain't comin down-
-Baby I feel its time that maybe I put you down-
I put you down' I put you down' I put you down'
I'm gonna put you down' put you down' put you down'
Im' gonna put you down..
I'm gonna put you down
Lord knows, I put you down
Put you down put you down.
The song "Waiting" by Griffin L.O.G. is about a man who is desperately trying to hold on to a relationship that is falling apart. He acknowledges that the situation is crazy and that he has never loved someone like his partner before, but despite their differences, he still wants her to stay with him. However, she keeps telling him that he's not the kind of man she wants, leaving him waiting for her to come back around. He is tired of waiting and hanging out by himself, but his love for her is so strong that he can't give up.
The song's lyrics convey the emotions of a man who is struggling to maintain a relationship that is constantly slipping out of his grasp. Even though he's doing everything he can to make his partner stay, she seems to be slipping away from him. The chorus, which repeats the line "Just waiting for you to come around," highlights the singer's sense of helplessness in the situation.
In the end, the singer realizes that he needs to put his partner down and move on from the relationship. The instrumental section of the song is particularly powerful, as Griffin L.O.G. channels all of his emotions into the music.
Overall, "Waiting" is a poignant and emotionally raw song that uses simple lyrics and a catchy chorus to convey the complex emotions of a man who is struggling with a difficult relationship.
