"Games I Play" lyrics

Maybe he's born with it
Maybe the heartbreak is getting to him
It feels like he's over it
What will we lose in the cynicism
I don't wanna know what I can't be
Do you reckon that your dad wouldn't like me?
But we had a nice chat about coffee, I thought I came across well

I don't wanna know what I can't be
I couldn't make you jealous if it's what I fancied
I just wanna dance with another man and lay on your backseat
I'm always gonna feel dumb and I know that somehow
Trying to be the one is redundant now
That kind of deal takes two
And I'm sensing your yearning half a mile away
What the hell does it mean when you won't even play?
All the parts that you cast for yourself when you stayed
I no longer know what to say
It's the games I play

Games I play

Maybe I'm born with it
The way that I yearn for romanticism
I've gotta get over it
Maybe I'll learn from his pragmatism
I don't wanna know what I can't be
Do you reckon that your dad wouldn't like me?
I could revise all the history books and we would come across well

I already know what I can't be
I couldn't make you jealous if it's what I fancied
I just wanna dance with another man and lay on your backseat
I'm always gonna feel dumb and I know that somehow
Trying to be the one is redundant now
That kind of deal takes two
And I'm sensing your yearning half a mile away
What the hell does it mean when you won't even play
All the parts that you cast for yourself when you stayed
I no longer know what to say
It's the games I play

And I'm sensing your yearning half a mile away
What the hell does it mean when you won't even play
All the parts that you cast for yourself when you stayed
Oh, you stayed
It's just the games I play
