Playing For Keeps Lyrics - Stories And Alibis - Matchbook Romance

It's so simple 

And complicated. 

The way you can crush me. 

No matter how much this hurts, 

This is through. 

I get as far as your door 

Before i get caught. 

I make up excuses 

Just to touch you and I can't stop 

I can't stop. 

So are we playing for keeps? 

The days begin and they don't end for weeks. 

Leave me left out 

Of anything to do with you. 

Excuse me while I fall apart. 

Don't flatter yourself sweetheart. 

Let me take the wheel 

And I'll crash this car. 

Do you have to make this so hard? 

You're so good at pretending everything is alright. 

You're as welcome as cancer 

But my door is always unlocked. 

So are we playing for keeps? 

The days begin and they don't end for weeks. 

Leave me left out 

Of anything to do with you. 

Excuse me while I fall apart. 

Don't flatter yourself sweetheart. 

Let me take the wheel 

And I'll crash this car. 

Do you have to make this so hard?
