Playing with the boys.

I'd say it was the right time
to walk away.
When dreaming takes you nowhere,
it's time to play.
Bodies working overtime,
your money don't matter,
the clock keeps ticking
when someone's on your mind.

I'm moving in slow motion,
feels so good;
it's a strange anticipation,
knock, knock, knocking on wood.
Bodies working overtime,
it's man against man
and all that matters
is, baby, who's ahead in the game.
Funny, but it's always the same.

Playing, playing with the boys!
Staying, playing with the boys!
After chasing sunsets
one of life's simple joys
is playing with the boys.

Said it was the wrong thing
for me to do.
I said it's just a boy's game,
but girls play too.
My heart is working overtime,
in this kind of game
people get hurt...
I'm thinking that the people is me.
If you want to find me, I'll be...

Playing, playing with the boys!
Staying, playing with the boys!
After chasing sunsets
one of life's simple joys
is playing with the boys.

I don't want to be the moth around your fire.
I don't want to be obsessed by my desire.
You're shining, you're smiling,
I've seen enough.
I'm staying here,
you play too rough.
