Play Your Part (Leading Role Radio Mix) Song Lyrics
Play Your Part (Leading Role Radio Mix) by Deborah Cox Can you pretend?
Can you pretend?
Can you pretend to be
The man I should have been with?
Can we fake the life
You know I should have had?
Can we do a better job
Of pretending that you really care?
Or I'll have to give the part
To someone else
You seem to have an important part
The leading role of my heart
You played it well, a long time ago
Until I started falling in love
And then you changed your character
And avoided all of your lines
Now the man I love is gone
Now can you play his part or just try?
Can you pretend to be
The man I should have been with?
Can we fake the life
You know I should have had?
Can we do a better job
Of pretending that you really care?
Or I'll have to give the part
To someone else
Love is like a see saw
It takes two in order for it to work
I workin' hard, I'm playin' my part
But the scene still won't work
Can you pretend to be
The man I should have been with?
Can we fake the life
You know I should have had?
Can we do a better job
Of pretending that you really care?
Or I'll have to give the part
To someone else
And rehearsals are long
Because your timing is all wrong
So I'll find someone who loves me
And who can play your part for life
I deserve a lot better than this
And I'm tired of actin' like
It's okay for me to give you my love
And receive nothing back in return
Can you pretend to be
The man I should have been with?
Can we fake the life
You know I should have had?
Can we do a better job
Of pretending that you really care?
Or I'll have to give the part
To someone else
Can you pretend to be
The man I should have been with?
Can we fake the life
You know I should have had?
Can we do a better job
Of pretending that you really care?
Or I'll have to give the part
To someone else
