Words of comfort and love

Spoken in design

Turn cruel, unkind

You have your ready treasure of sin

And it all begins

With an innocent smile.



Go on...

Make a play for her now

While I'm standing here

I bleed so slow

You may never know, wo-oh.



Whisper she is safe

That you sympathize

The darkest lies

When you know right now you'll be gone

At the kiss of dawn

Your conscience runs clear.



Go on...

Make a play for her now

While I'm standing here

I bleed so slow

You may never know

Oh, and I won't make a sound

Hey, who am I to lay the blame

When it's all a game to you.



You and I misfired

Left me cold and tired

Hey love, it's alright.



Go on...

Make a play for her now

While I'm standing here

I don't keep score (don't keep score)

No not anymore

Oh, and I won't make a sound

Hey, who am I to lay the blame

When it's just a game.



No, in the back of your mind

The pattern's starting to unwind

And you know you're alone (know you're alone)

Oh, and you smile anyhow

When the moment allows

Make a play for her now.
