Velveteen
Part of the Game
I gotta tell you
Something I could do
I could be running
Or chasing you
But I won't
‘Cause I got better
Better things to do
Rather spend
My precious time
Chasing somebody
Who loves me too
If I got a dollar for every time
You slammed the door
I would be the richest girl
Alive, live, live
If you hadn't run away
Every time I asked to stay
You would sleep
Right next to me tonight
No, you didn't want me
All you wanted
Was a game to play
And you couldn't handle
That I had my ways
Around your mind tricks
And your side tricks
I'm a winner babe
But you didn't win this
It's a part of the game
In the beginning
I just didn't know
That you're an enemy
I held too close
Now I know
Cause you did everything
To prove me wrong
You were not
The guy I thought
Now I'm beating you
At your own
Yeah
If I got a dollar for every time
You slammed the door
I would be the richest girl
Alive, live
No, you didn't want me
All you wanted
Was a game to play
And you couldn't handle
That I had my ways
Around your mind tricks
And your side tricks
I'm a winner babe
But you didn't win this
It's a part of the game
Yeah, I beat you at your game
And if you were me
You would do the same
Man, I really love to play
And now that I’ve won
It's safe to say
No, you didn't want me
All you wanted
Was a game to play
And you couldn't handle
That I had my ways
Around your mind tricks
And your side tricks
I'm a winner babe
But you didn't win this
It's a part of the game

All you wanted (all you wanted)

And you couldn't handle (handle)
