I never thought u would be the one
that iĄŻd wanna run 2
i never thought u would be the one
that would make me care
and even tho u done me wrong
4 some strange reason i canĄŻt xplain
i get happy knowing u phoned
cuz your voice could kill my every pain
why do we play this silly game?
I never thought u would be the one
that iĄŻd wanna give 2
a diamond ring, anything that u ask me 2
but there u were, bragging 2 your friends
making up a story thatĄŻs so lame
that i was down 2 be your sugardaddy
one way ticket to ghetto fame
why do we play this silly game?
Every other night u werenĄŻt at home
out in the streets, just acting grown
never with a bodyguard or chaperone
then i hear a rumour that breaks my heart
instead of taking care of yourself
uĄŻre tearing yourself apart
now why u wanna
(why u wanna, why u wanna ...)
now why u wanna go and do that, love?
Why do we play this silly game?
I never thought u would be the one
(that iĄŻd wanna run 2) that iĄŻd wanna run 2
i never thought uĄŻd be the one
that would make me care
no matter how far i run
iĄŻll never be the same (iĄŻll never be the same)
in the end, in the end, thereĄŻs only us 2 blame
why do we play this ...
why do we play this silly ...
why do we play this silly game?
Yeah
ooh-ooh
tell me why? (tell me why?)
oh why? (oh why?)
oh why - why?
Why do we play this silly game?
