Playing For Keeps

Don't let go.

I'm not just a one night thing,

You're not a simple fling.

I'm playing for keeps.

This is a solemn vow.

Not just here and now.

I'm playing for keeps.

If you say "I do",

I'll spend forever with you.

Take me into your darkest hour.

I want everything you are,

And I won't back down when it gets hard.

I've had the best of you now I want the rest of you.

Show me everything you are,

And I won't break your heart.

You are my everything so give me your anything.

I'm playing for keeps.

This ain't a casualty,

 Or temporarily.

I'm playing for keeps.

This is reality.

For an eternity.

I'm playing for keeps.

If you let me through,

I'll spend forever with you.

You're my one best friend.

Don't pretend to throw it away,

It won't get better that way.

I love you for you,

Not who you portray.

At the end of the day.

You want someone to see who you are,

And I'm trying, I'm really trying.

But you won't let me get far.

When you're lying.
