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 the 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
I just can't stop it
Spendin' all day
Thinking just of you
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
Smilin' 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
I 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
