Kenny Loggins Playing With The Boys Lyrics

Playing With The Boys Lyrics

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  
Someone gets hurt  
I'm afraid that someone is me  
If you want to find me, I'll be  
Playing with the boys  
 
I don't want to be the moth around your fire  
I don't want to be obsessed by your desire  
I'm ready, I'm leaving  
I've seen enough  
I've got to go  
You play too rough
