Don't Play the Game Lyrics

You took me to the docks that we knew well

Gave me all the talk I used to sell

You knew how I felt far as I can tell

Just a detailed account of how we fell

We would stay inside while others would play

It was always a sleepy kind of day

I was so ready but had to wait

You were pushing me out of my resting state

Isn't it the dream

To love your friend

And have it work out

Wonderful to be

Unafraid to express our doubts

Honesty shouldn't be a luxury

We'll find a way

We'll find a way

Let's hear what your parents have to say

It seems you'll be married any day

During a crisis they'd only pray

I'll try to be nice and you'll be brave

Maybe we would use our paycheck to buy

A Nintendo from a much simpler life

You're my liminal space in which I reside

'Cause all of my thoughts to you I run by

Isn't it the dream

To love your friend

And have it work out

Wonderful to be

Unafraid to express our doubts

Honesty shouldn't be a luxury

We'll find a way

I can say your name

In a desperate cry

You don't play the game

You don't lie to be kind

Isn't it the dream

To have a friend that don't tear my heart out

Wonderful to be

Unafraid to express our doubts

Honesty shouldn't be a luxury

We'll find a way

We'll find a way

Honesty shouldn't be a luxury

We'll find a way

If you never leave me

You never leave me

Never leave me

You never leave me
