Steve Moakler - Play You Down

I should be out there having my fun.
Drinking beers with the boys and watching time run.
I should be listening to what I said
when I said stay away from who you can’t forget.

Now you come pushing my heart around.
All you had to do was be.
And I can’t play you down,
but I won’t pull the trigger.
If I said how I felt
it would be something bigger,
so fast I’d be face first flat on the ground.
It’s a losing game trying to play you down.

I should be thinking ‘bout other stuff.
Maybe read a book on how to run from love.
Cause it dragged me down by the heels,
had me busted up for years and years.

Now you come pushing my heart around.
All you had to do was be.
And I can’t play you down,
but I won’t pull the trigger.
If I said how I felt
it would be something bigger,
so fast I’d be face first flat on the ground.
It’s a losing game trying to play you down.
It’s a losing game trying to play you down.

I don’t want to tell you
what you already know.
Everybody’s talking, everybody’s talking.
I need some more time just to be alone.

But I can’t play you down,
but I won’t pull the trigger.
If I said how I felt
it would be something bigger,
so fast I’d be face first flat on the ground.
It’s a losing game trying to play you down.
It’s a losing game trying to play you down.
It’s a losing game trying to play you down.

I think everybody knows it
