After knowing you so long
I can't believe what's going on
It's kinda strange to hear you say
How much you love me
Cos when you were only nine and i was ten
We had such fun, babe, playing lovers
You were never more than just the kid next door
And now you've grown i wanna play some more
Love games, but no more kiss and run games this time
You used to be a shy girl
But my, girl, look what a year or two has done for you
We'll play love games, forever kind of love games this time
From now on when i hold you
You can't go back home when your momma calls
When i take you out on a friday night
I know my friends won't recognise you
Who would ever dream that you'd turn out this way
Please tell your ma you're going out to play
Love games, but no more kiss and run games this time
You used to be a shy girl
But my, girl, look what a year or two has done for you
Love games, forever kind of love games this time
From now on when i hold you
You can't go to momma til momma calls
Oh, tell your ma you're going out to play
Love games, but no more kiss and run games this time
You used to be a shy girl
But my, girl, look what a year or two has done for you
Love games, forever kind of love games this time
From now on when i hold you
You can't go to momma til momma calls
Love games, but no more kiss and run games this time
You used to be a shy girl
But my, girl, look what a year or two has done for you
