Buying Time

I've played the games, the masquerades

By the time the eleventh hour fades

You're bound to know that what

I say is true

And I'm the one you're looking for

Every time you find that cheatin' door

I'll just keep pretending

I never knew

But what are we in this for

When our hearts are on the line?

And if a heart could brake

You're surely breaking mine

And if we fall to ruin

It wasn't my design

But if I can have my way

There's no price

I won't pay

To just keep buying time

I'll have to say,

I have my doubts

But I'll give all till

I give out

And I'll do anything to make you stay

But this could be part of the plan

Maybe we were dealt a losing hand

But I'll have to let the cards fall where they may

But what are we in this for

When our hearts are on the line?

And if a heart could brake

You're surely breaking mine

And if we fall to ruin

It wasn't my design

But if I can have my way

There's no price

I won't pay

To just keep buying time
