George Stewart 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 talking 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 the day
Fixing 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

Chorus:
Games people play
Night or day, they're just not matching
What they should do
Keeps me feeling blue
Been down too long
Right, wrong, I just can't stop it
Spending all day
Thinking just of you

12:45 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
Smiling as she came, calling out my name

So I know where to go
We'll take it slow
I guess I'll call it a day

Repeat Chorus and fade
