Playing For Time - Uriah Heep

Travel down the road of heartache

Hear an echo in my mind

I’ve played with fire

Burned my fingers

Now I’m gonna take my time

You don’t have to shout about it

Can’t you see it obvious

Feel?

it’s getting close to comfort

Why you makin' such a fuss?

Take your time with

What you’re doin'

And you’ll see the skies appear

Seen and heard it all before her

Now you understand my fear

Can’t you see the time will tell us

How it’s gonna always be

You can wrap me

Around your finger

And I ain’t no mystery

Playing for time

That’s all I can do

I’m playing for time

Before I fall in love with you

You can push me every which way

Hey I got no place to fall

Guess you’re gonna rue your bullshit

When your back’s against the wall

Louder now that’s what the games go?

And I bought the devil now?

You can get to dream about it

I won’t need one anyhow

Playing for time

That’s all I can do

Playing for time

Before I fall in love

Playing for time

That’s all I want to do

Playing for time

Before I fall in love

Oh, you don’t have to shout about it

Can’t you see it obvious

Feel it’s getting close for comfort

Why you making such a fuss?

Travel down the road of heartache

Hear an echo my mind

Played with fire, burned my fingers

Now I’m gonna take my time

Playing for time

Before I fall in love with you

Playing for time

That’s all I want to do

Playing for time

Before I fall

Playing for time

All I want to do

Playing for time
