Playing For Keeps

Is it for reason
Or is it for pain?
Is it for life?
Or is it in vain?

Are you in or are you out babe?
Are you playing for keeps?
Are you in for the long haul?
Or are you just tongue in cheek?
Is he your real boy?
Or is he a thief?
Did he run off with your heart babe?
When you turned the other cheek

Is this a painting?
Then where is the frame?
What are these sketches now baby
That we put to our name?

If this is a painting
Then where is the frame?
And what is this lump in my throat now baby?
And why am I tied to this chain?

To this chain
To this chain
To this chain
To this chain

This feel more
Like a dress rehearsal
Like I'm the star of the show
And you're nothing at all
But the lines on my face
Tells me I'm like you all
And the painting is us babe
And there's no frame at all

If this is a painting
Then where is the frame?
What are these sketches now baby
That we put to our name

If this is a painting
Then where is the frame?
And what this lump in my throat now baby
And why am I tied to this chain?

To this chain
To this chain
To this chain

Check one two
Is this mic still on?
Can I get some lighting to go with this song?
To go with this song?

To go with this song?
To go with this song?
To go with this song?
To go with this song?
