[Intro]
[Slow Reggae Groove]
[Bass Heavy]
[Organ swell]
(Oooooh, yeah)
(My heart, it skips a beat)

[Verse 1]
You walked by, with a shy little smile
I haven’t seen you, for a long, long while
My heart is BEATING, like a drum in the night
Trying to hide, but it don't feel right
I’m playing these games, in my head again
Trying to guess, where your heart has been

[Pre-Chorus]
But the rhythm is calling, sweet and slow
And there’s something, you really need to know
I’m standing here, in the golden light
Waiting for you, to make it right

[Chorus]
Oh, why do we play, these silly games?
Writing our hearts, on the window panes
It’s a long way down, from the love we knew
(Love we knew)
Baby, I’m still, reaching for you
It’s a sweet, sweet reggae melody
Won’t you come back, and stay with me?

[Verse 2]
I count the minutes, I count the stars
Wondering where, you really are
Are you laughing? (giggles) Are you feeling blue?
I’m just hoping, that you’re missing me too
The bassline drops, and the world stands still
If you ask me to stay, lord, you know I will

[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause the rhythm is calling, soft and deep
Promises made, that we meant to keep
I’m standing here, in the morning glow
Don't let the fire, burn down so low

[Chorus]
Oh, why do we play, these silly games?
Writing our hearts, on the window panes
It’s a long way down, from the love we knew
(Love we knew)
Baby, I’m still, reaching for you
It’s a sweet, sweet reggae melody
Won’t you come back, and stay with me?

[Bridge]
[Tempo building]
I don’t want to run, I don’t want to hide
I want you standing, right by my side
No more games, no more lies
Just look deep, into my eyyyyyyyyes

[Solo]
[Smooth Saxophone]

[Chorus]
Oh, why do we play, these silly games?
Writing our hearts, on the window panes
It’s a long way down, from the love we knew
(Love we knew)
Baby, I’m still, reaching for you
It’s a sweet, sweet reggae melody
Won’t you come back... (breathy) and stay with me?

[Outro]
Stay with me, boy
(Silly games, silly games)
Don't play no more
(Just stay with me)
Yeah, it’s a sweet, sweet sound
(Sweet melody)
Oooooh, my love
[Fade out]
