Each time I try to move a little closer
And say how much I feel for you inside
You tell me that you need some space
I better move away
Don't you know that you hurt me this way

So baby don't play with my heart
Baby this game will only keep us apart
Don't play with my heart
With this love is all that we've got
Then why don't we stop
I've been loving you for too long a time
Waiting for this moment that will you will be mine
I just let my heart rule over my mind
Maybe sometimes we just have to leave
The pain behind

And so I try to move a little closer
And show you just how much I feel inside
You tell me that need some space
Don't push my love away
Don't you know that you hurt me this way

So baby don't play with my heart
Baby this game will only keep us apart
Don't play with my heart
With this love is all that we've got
Then why don't we stop
I've been loving you for too long a time
Waiting for this moment that you will be mine
I just let my heart rule over my mind
Maybe sometimes we just have to leave
The pain behind

So baby don't play with my heart
Baby this game will only keep us apart
Don't play with my heart
