Lyrics
Travel down the road of heartache
Hear it echo in my mind
Play with fire, burn my fingers
Now I'm gonna take my time
You don't have to shout about it
Can't you see it's obvious
Feel it's getting close for comfort
Why you making such a fuss
Take your time with what you're doing
I can see the signs are real
Seems I've heard it all before
Hope you understand my feel
Guarantee that time will tell us
How it's gonna always be
You can't wrap me 'round your finger
That ain't no mystery
Play for time
That's all I can do
I play for time
Before I fall in love with you
You can push me every which way
Ain't got no place to fall
Just remember who you're pushing
When you're backing against the wall
Holding out is what the game's called
Can't afford to gamble now
You can yell and scream about it
I'm gonna yell it anyhow
Play for time
That's all I can do
Play for time
Before I fall in love
Play for time
That's all I wanna do
Play for time
Before I fall in love
You don't have to shout about it
Can't you see it's obvious
Feel it's getting close for comfort
Why you making such a fuss
Travel down the road of heartache
Hear it echo in my mind
Play with fire, burn my fingers
Now I'm gonna take my time
Play for time
Before I fall in love with you
Play for time
That's all I wanna do
Play for time
Before I fall
Play for time
I'm not fooling you
Play for time
Play for time
Before I fall
Play for time
Before I fall in love with you
Play for time
I'll play for time
Give me soul
Play for time
I'll give it up time
