lyrics

Nothing he says would ever make much sense
So he should just keep it to himself
But he’ll take his time, see if they can work it out
He won’t call it a day just yet
And she said

Not today, now it’s not the time nor place
And she said
If I stay it would never be the same, it’s alright, now be on your way

Go back to
Playing those love songs
See if someone else can fall for it
Hurting your love ones
And hurt yourself

And I’ll play it cool
Play it Cool

Baby I have suffered enough
And gave you all the time you’ve asked
Don’t act like you did nothing wrong
Don’t you close your heart to a fresh start

He said
I’m sorry if I let you down
He said
If you stay I will never, never walk away from you
And go back to
Playing your love songs
No one ever will take your place
If I ever hurt you
It was all a mistake

We can play it cool
Play it cool

(Love won’t fade away)
(Love won’t fade away)

Love can be so strong
But there’s so much a heart can take
And I will keep mine, keep my heart safe

Love can be so strong
But there’s so much a heart can take
If you really love someone, can you bear all the pain?
