Playing For Time Lyrics - Head First - Uriah Heep

Travel down the road of heartache 

Hear an echo in my mind 

I've played with fire 

Burned my fingers 

Now I'm gonna take my time 

You don't have to shout about it 

Can't you see it obvious 

Feel ? it's getting close to comfort 

Why you makin' such a fuss? 

Take your time with 

What you're doin' 

And you'll see the skies appear 

Seen and heard it all before her 

Now you understand my fear 

Can't you see the time will tell us 

How it's gonna always be 

You can wrap me 

Around your finger 

And I ain't no mystery 

Playing for time 

That's all I can do 

I'm playing for time 

Before I fall in love with you 

You can push me every which way 

Hey I got no place to fall 

Guess you're gonna rue your bullshit 

When your back's against the wall 

Louder now that's what the games go ? 

And I bought the devil now ? 

You can get to dream about it 

I won't need one anyhow 

Playing for time 

That's all I can do 

Playing for time 

Before I fall in love 

Playing for time 

That's all I want to do 

Playing for time 

Before I fall in love 

Oh, you don't have to shout about it 

Can't you see it obvious 

Feel it's getting close for comfort 

Why you making such a fuss? 

Travel down the road of heartache 

Hear an echo my mind 

Played with fire, burned my fingers 

Now I'm gonna take my time 

Playing for time 

Before I fall in love with you 

Playing for time 

That's all I want to do 

Playing for time 

Before I fall 

Playing for time 

All I want to do 

Playing for time
