I played for money, I'd play for free
I play to win, sometimes I play to put my mind at ease
I play my part in what seems an endless game
And I did not choose this but it's all that I can do
I play along, but this one song I play for you
I played for nothing, I played it safe, too safe
I won your trust but then you lost your heart to someone else
I showed my cards and you played so hard to get.
Now I take my chances
Cuz what had I to lose, if I can't have you
For right or wrong, girl this here song I play for you
No rhyme or reason, and no why you broke the rules
And you left me feeling blue
No right or wrong, just this one song I play for you
And it only for you, and life goes on and this here song I play for you
