The Long Game
Johnathan Rice
Lyrics:
I play the long game
Took my time to get here today
Had some good and bad days
I wouldn’t have it any other way
Best to start the long game
When you’re young and spry
Before the big black clouds
Take shape in your mind
Make yourself free to see how quickly
This good life goes by
Allow yourself to be happy
And I think you’ll find
Good to play the long game
With you by my side
With my lips pressed to your cheek
And your hand in mine
Now give your love to me baby
And I’ll give you mine
Let me make you happy
And I swear I’ll try
You can play the long game
Long after I’m gone
Think of me, drink in hand
Laughing till the dawn
