Tender

Don't play with me Don't stay with me Don't play with me unless it's for real (Don't stay with me unless it's for real) Don't stay with me unless it's for real (Don't play with me unless it's for real) All I had was one sure thing In my life I lost it all But I just couldn't see A reason to believe If only I could try and start again In my mind I live in California In my mind I spent some time with you I watch the sun light up the ocean I sit and pray that all my dreams come true So don't play with me unless it's for real So don't stay with me unless it's for real Here I stand and here I fall A clear blue sky looks down on me And this once tender man Has done the best he can But just can't find a way to start again In my mind I live in California In my mind I spent some time with you I watch the sun light up the ocean And sit and pray that all my dreams come true So don't play with me unless it's for real So don't stay with me unless it's for real I'll take a chance give it one more try A second glance make me realize That all I need is a master plan And find a world that can understand Don't play with me unless it's for real Don't stay with me unless it's for real So don't play with me unless it's for real (So don't stay with me unless it's for real) So don't stay with me unless it's for real (So don't play with me unless it's for real) So don't play with me So don't play with me, alright
