Clint Black - Buying Time lyrics

rate me

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
