Waiting On A Friend från Tatoo You är kanske inte en av Rollings Stones allra största hits, men en av de som har betytt allra mest för mig. Särskilt tillsammans med orignalvideon här under. Låten spelades ursprungligen in 1972 men gavs ut först 1981, när världen var mogen för den får man ana.

Watching girls go passing by

It aint the latest thing

Im just standing in a doorway

Im just trying to make some sense

Out of these girls go passing by

The tales they tell of men

Im not waiting on a lady

Im just waiting on a friend

A smile relieves a heart that grieves

Remember what I said

Im not waiting on a lady

Im just waiting on a friend

Im just waiting on a friend

Dont need a whore

I dont need no booze

Dont need a virgin priest

But I need someone I can cry to

I need someone to protect

Making love and breaking hearts

It is a game for youth

But Im not waiting on a lady

Im just waiting on a friend

Watching girls go passing byIt aint the latest thingIm just standing in a doorwayIm just trying to make some senseOut of these girls go passing byThe tales they tell of menIm not waiting on a ladyIm just waiting on a friend

A smile relieves a heart that grievesRemember what I saidIm not waiting on a ladyIm just waiting on a friendIm just waiting on a friend

Dont need a whoreI dont need no boozeDont need a virgin priestBut I need someone I can cry toI need someone to protectMaking love and breaking heartsIt is a game for youthBut Im not waiting on a ladyIm just waiting on a friend
