I`VE PLAYED THE GAMES, THE MASQUERADES
BY THE TIME THE ELEVENTH HOUR FADES
YOU`RE BOUND TO KNOW THAT WHAT I SAY IS TRUE
AND I`M THE ONE YOU`RE LOOKING FOR
EVERY TIME YOU FIND THAT CHEATIN` DOOR
I`LL JUST KEEP PRETENDING I NEVER KNEW
CHORUS:
BUT WHAT ARE WE IN THIS FOR
WHEN OUR HEARTS ARE ON THE LINE
AND IF A HEART COULD BRAKE
YOU`RE SURELY BREAKING MINE
AND IF WE FALL TO RUIN
IT WASN`T MY DESIGN
IF I CAN HAVE MY WAY
THERE`S NO PRICE I WON`T PAY
TO JUST KEEP BUYING TIME
I`LL HAVE TO SAY I HAVE MY DOUBTS
BUT I`LL GIVE ALL TILL I GIVE OUT
AND I`LL DO ANYTHING TO MAKE YOU STAY
BUT THIS COULD BE PART OF THE PLAN
MAYBE WE WERE DEALT A LOSING HAND
I`LL HAVE TO LET THE CARDS FALL WHERE THEY MAY
REPEAT CHORUS
