I Was A Playboy - Joe Henry

I was a playboy

In love with the world

I walked with the angels

Every stone left unhurled

Every breeze took me higher

Every door set me free

Oh, I was a playboy

And you just a plaything to me

My laughter came easy

And so did the days

The flowered and faded

And it felt like the way

And it flew up behind me

Like good times they followed me

Oh, I was a playboy

And you just a plaything to me

Now I’ve been here for hours

Awake in my bed

Alone with the clever

All the quick and the dead

And all the misguided

Who keep me company

Oh, I was a playboy

And you just a plaything to me

Just a plaything to me

Just a plaything to me
