"Waiting Game" is a song by American singer Banks from her second extended play (EP), London (2013). It was written by Banks and Sohn, and produced by the latter. The song was also included on Banks' debut studio album, Goddess (2014). "Waiting Game" charted at number 99 on the UK Singles Chart in January 2014 after being featured in a Victoria's Secret commercial.

Although it was never released as a single, the song was featured in a Victoria's Secret commercial in December 2013, and in January 2014, it charted at number 99 on the UK Singles Chart. The track also reached number 16 on the US Alternative Digital Songs chart in April 2015. The song describes a long-distance relationship.

In July 2014, English girl group Neon Jungle released a cover version of the song on their album Welcome to the Jungle without Banks' knowledge. In response, Banks posted a statement on her Facebook page, explaining she was "shocked" to see the song on their album, describing the song as "my own heartbeats" and having been "born from my real life, my real heartache, my real fingertips when I was at one of the most confusing times in my life". The song would later appear on her debut studio album, Goddess, released in September 2014.

Banks performed "Waiting Game" on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on August 7, 2014, along with single "Beggin for Thread", making her television debut. It would later be featured in series 1 episode 7 of Reckless, series 11 episode 3 of Grey's Anatomy, series 3 episode 1 of Mistresses, series 1 episode 7 of Power, series 1 episode 4 of The Originals and in the deluxe edition of the soundtrack to the 2014 film Divergent.
