So keep on showing me
The best that you can be
Don’t try to pretend

I’ve seen all the signs of leavin’
I’ve played the fool too many times

(CHORUS)

If you wanna KEEP ME
Start playing for keeps
Don’t tell me that you need me
Darlin’ talk is cheap
Just give me your love, sweet love
Every day of the week
If you wanna KEEP ME
Start playing for keeps

Don’t leave me alone
By my telephone
Without a good excuse

You can run around
Run all over town
But I can do it too

What we have could last forever
If you play by my rules

(REPEAT CHORUS)

I’ve seen all the signs of leavin’
I’ve played the fool too many times

(REPEAT CHORUS)
