Playing Around

Playing around, playing around
That's all you ever do
I can be found waiting around
Waiting for you to get through
Playing around, playing around
Sometimes you seem so blue
But I'll let you go and I'll watch you grow
Till I know your playing is through
But I don't suppose that you notice me
'Cause I'm not the play around kind
But I hope someday to have you with me
When you quit playing around
Playing around, playing around
but playmates won't see you through
and when they're all gone and no-ones around
I'll be there waiting for you
But I don't suppose that you notice me
'Cause I'm not the play around kind
But I hope someday to have you with me
When you quit playing around
