"Don't Play With My Heart" lyrics

"Don't Play With My Heart"

[Intro:]
My dear Renee, I might have to say
So long, so long, so long
Sorry, it didn't work out

[Hook:]
But I won't waste no more time over you, oh no
When with this life I got better things to do, oh
Why should I waste precious time over you? Oh yeah
Because you checks and no one needs me so you play with my heart

[Verse 1:]
Now why would I cry if you're leaving tomorrow?
Check and see who is surprised
Why should I die if you tell me it's over?
When will you realize?

Every man needs a woman for comfort
Nothing to mix up the brain
So if you ever, ever think for a moment
If you can run this man insane

[Hook:]
No ain't gonna waste no more time over you, oh no
When with my life I've got better things to do, oh yeah
Why should I waste precious time over you? Oh yeah
Or when you checks and no one needs me so you play with my heart, oh yeah

[Verse 2:]
Tick-a-tick-a-tock and the clock is a-running
Now I'm gonna make you a deal
If you're gonna stay or tell me if you're leaving
But make sure this time it's for real

Cause I'm not the kind of a man to be pleading
Cause that'd only mess with my pride
So though deep down inside I'll be bleeding
I'd still have to push you aside

[Hook:]
Cause I ain't gonna waste more time over you, no
Alright, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

[Interlude:]
My dear Renee, it is not okay
For you to come and go
And do whatever he's asked

[Hook:]
I ain't gonna waste no more time over you, oh no
When with my life I got better things to do, oh
Ain't gonna waste no more time over you
You must be checks and no one needs me so you play with my heart

[Verse 3:]
Now why should I cry when you're leaving tomorrow?
Check and see who is surprised
Why would I die if you tell me it's over?
When will you realize?

Every man needs a woman for comfort
Nothing to mix up the brain
So if you ever, ever think for a moment
If you can run this man insane

[Hook:]
No ain't gonna waste no more time over you, oh no
When with my life I got better things to do
Ain't gonna waste no more time over you
You must be checks and no one needs me so you play with my heart

[Outro:]
Ooh Renee, it's time to say
Bye, bye
