The Spinners - Games People Play lyrics

Can't get no rest
Don't know how I work all day
When will I learn? Memories get in the way
I walk around
I can't hear a sound, folks talkin' loud
But I don't see at all
I gotta get away, gotta get away, I don't

Know where to go it's hopeless so
I guess I'll leave it alone

Well I spent all my day
Fixin' up to go somewhere thought I was late
And I found she wasn't there
I guess I'll find
The love, peace of mind, some other time
But I still have today
I gotta get away, gotta get away, I don't

Know where to go it's hopeless so
I guess I'll leave it alone

Games people play
Night or day they're just not matchin'
What they should do keeps me feelin' blue
Been down too long
Right, wrong, they just can't stop it
Spendin' all day thinking just of you

Twelve forty-five

Headed for the subway home

I took my time

'Cause, I felt so all alone

Not far away

I heard a funny sound, took a look around
And I

Could see her face

Smile as she came, callin' out my name, so I

Know where to go we'll take it slow
Guess I'll call it a day

Games people play
Night or day they're just not matchin'
What they should do keeps me feelin' blue
Been down too long
Right, wrong, they just can't stop it
Spendin' all day thinking just of you
Games people play
Night or day they're just not matchin'
What they should do keeps me feelin' blue
Been down too long
Right, wrong, they just can't stop it
Spendin' all day thinking just of you
