Play On

(album: Sparkle - 1998)

Play on, play on, play on, play on
Play on, play on and on and on

Boy, what you do to me
I can't conceive
All I know is that I love you
But I've got to leave

Boy, what did I ever do
To make you do the things you do?
Drop the 4-1-1 for me
Here I am, boy, come and talk to me

I need to know what's going on with this love affair
Sick and tired of playing games, boy
You're playing with my heart
What we had was so together now you've torn it all apart, so

Play on, play on, play on, play on
Play on, play on and on and on

Boy, what you do to me
I can't conceive
All I know is that I love you
But I've got to leave

So play on, play on, play on, play on
Play on, play on and on and on

I thought that you were mine
Gave you all my time
Boy, you played me for a fool
Now there's one thing left to do so play on

Boy, you should have told me
That you had somebody else across town
Oh, boy, instead I heard it from a friend of mine
How could I be so blind?

You took my love for granted
It's not the way I planned it
Oh boy, no explanations
Don't wanna hear no more lies or some phoney alibis just

Play on, play on, play on, play on
Play on, play on and on and on

Boy, what you do to me
I can't conceive
All I know is that I love you
But I've got to leave

So play on, play on, play on, play on
Play on, play on and on and on

I thought that you were mine
Gave you all my time
Boy, you played me for a fool
Now there's one thing left to do so play on

Every night I wait for your love
To come around, boy, I want you so bad
Every day and night
What's the use of crying, I'm tired of trying

Play on, play on, play on, play on
Play on, play on and on and on

I thought that you were mine
Gave you all my time
Boy, you played me for a fool
Now there's one thing left to do, so

Play on, play on, play on, play on
Play on, play on and on and on

Boy, what you do to me
I can't conceive
All I know is that I love you
But I've got to leave
