Play – Ilana Charnelle

I’m remembering the start

In your car that’s falling apart

Sitting in the passenger seat thinking, ‘Kiss me’

I’m remembering the end

In a bar with all your friends

Didn’t speak till you pushed her in front of me

So’s I could see that you were busy

 

Well thanks for making it so damn clear

Thanks for sticking it right in my mind

We go months without a word, one night your bed is feeling cold

Did you really think I wouldn’t mind?

 

But I know you now, this is your way

You set me up, then walk away

For you it’s all some childish game

But you won’t play, play, play, play, play me

No not today

 

Pray,. what’s keeping you awake

A message every second day

You got me thinking about the spark, me driving over in the dark

And how you held me

You think that I don’t miss you too?

There’s many nights I’ll think of you

But then I’ll think of her face and the way I was replaced

Boy, just let me be

 

Coz let me tell you I’ve had my fun

Giving out all my loose change

But now I’m not interested unless you want all in

I’m done selling out so you can misbehave

 

But I know you now, this is your way

You set me up, then walk away

For you it’s all some childish game

But you won’t play, play, play, play, play me

No not today

 

Coz boy, you’re just like a child

Who wants back what he threw away

You don’t want me for my mind, you want someone to hold you tight

Pat your head and say, ‘It’s gonna be okay’

 

But I know you now, this is your way

You set me up, then walk away

For you it’s all some childish game

But you won’t play, play, play, play, play me

No not today

You won’t play, play, play, play, play me

No not today

You won’t play, play, play, play, play me

No not today
