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

Nowhere to go
It's hopeless so
I guess I'll leave it alone

Well I spent all that day
Fixin' up to go somewhere
Thought I was late
And I found she wasn't there
I guess I'll find
Love, peace of mind, some other time, but I
Still have today
I gotta get away, gotta get away, I don't

Nowhere 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

Twelve forty-five
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
Smile as she came, callin' out my name, so I

Nowhere to go
We'll take it slow
I 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

[instrumental]

Not far away
I heard a funny sound, took a look around, and I
Could see her face
Smile as she came, callin' out my name, so I

Nowhere to go
We'll take it slow
I 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
[end]
