Playing With The Boys Lyrics

Kenny Loggins

I'd say it was the right time
to walk away
When dreaming takes you nowhere
it's time to play
Bodies working overtime
Your money don't matter
the clock keeps ticking
when someone's on your mind

I'm moving in slow motion
feels so good
It's a strange anticipation
knock, knock, knocking on wood
Bodies working overtime
Man against man
And all that ever matters
is baby who's ahead in the game
Funny but it's always the same

(chorus)
Playing, playing with the boys
Playing, playing with the boys
After chasing sunsets
one of life's simple joys
is playing with the boys

Said it was the wrong thing
for me to do
I said it's just a boys' game
girls play too
My heart is working overtime
In this kind of game
people get hurt
I'm afraid that someone is me
If you want to find me, I'll be

(chorus)

I don't want to be the
moth around your fire
I don't want to be
obsessed by my desire
I'm ready, I'm leaving
I've seen enough
...with the boys
I've seen enough
You play too rough

Playing, playing with the boys
I'll be staying
playing with the boys
After chasing sunsets
one of life's simple joys
is playing with the boys

Playing with the boys
Playing
Playing
Playing
Playing
