(v. peterson/v. vincent)
vicki

words of comfort and love
spoken in design
turn cruel unkind
you have your ready treasures or sin
and it all begins
with an innocent smile

go on, make a play for her now
while i´m standing here
i bleed so slow
you may never know

whisper she is safe
that you sympathize
the darkest lies
when you know right now you´ll be gone
at the kiss of dawn
your conscience runs clear

go on, make a play for her now
while i´m standing here
i bleed so slow
you may never know
and i won´t make a sound
who am i to lay the blame
when it´s all a game to you

you and i misfired
left me cold and tired
hey love it´s alright

go on, make a play for her now
while i´m standing here
i don´t keep score
no not anymore
and i won´t make a sound
hey, who am i to lay the blame
when it´s just a game

in the back of your mind
the pattern´s starting to unwind
and you know you´re alone
oh, but you smile anyhow
when the moment allows
make a play for her now
