Play for Today lyrics

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

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
