Lyrics for Play For Today
It's not a case of doing what's right It's just the way I feel that matters Tell me I'm wrong, I don't really care It's not a case of share and share alike I take what I require I don't understand, you say it's not fair You expect me to act like a lover Consider my moves and deserve the reward To hold you in my arms and wait And wait... and wait for something to happen It's not a case of telling the truth Some lines just fit the situation You call me a liar, you would anyway It's not a case of aiming to please You know you're always crying It's just your part in the play for today
