Play Your Part - Deborah Cox

Can you pretend to be the man I should have been with

Can we fake the life you know I should have had

Can we do a better job of pretending that you really care

Or Ill have to give the part to someone else

You seem to have an important part

The lead role of my heart

You played it well along time ago

Until I started falling in love

And then you changed your character

And avoided all of your lines

Now the man I love is gone now

Can you play his part at this time

Love is like a see saw it takes two in order for it to work

Im working hard, Im playing my part but the scene still wont work

And rehearsals are long because your timing is all wrong

So Ill find someone who loves me And who can play your part for life

I deserve a lot better than this

And Im tired of acting like its okay for me to give you my love

And receive nothing back in return
