Rez Band - Players lyrics

rate me

She left me strangely not lingering like before

Her face sad but sure - I stopped her at the door

Made some empty promises she'd heard too many times

I tried a little a little sweet talk to cover lovers' crimes

She said "How do you love when no one loves in return?

If love is a teacher why's it so hard to learn?

Tell me, is it better to marry than to burn?

Are we just players, players in the game?"

I remember kissin' fingers wrapped in her hair

In that rush of emotion did I ever really care?

And as I saw her silhouette fadin' down the hall

I begged for love's mercy talkin' to the wall

Sayin' how do you love when no one loves in return?

If love is a teacher why's it so hard to learn?

Tell me, is it better to marry than to burn?

Are we just players, players in the game?

When I was a child tryin' to prove I was a man

I came upon a woman who told me who I am

Sometimes you play the part so well you even fool yourself

I need a different kind of love from somewhere else

True love knows to love when no one loves in return

Love is the teacher and I got a lot to learn

Passion takes its prisoners, got to break before I burn

Can't be playin', playin' lovin' games

Can't be playin', playin' lovin' games
