Play A Part - Expatriate

You were right, I was wrong from the beginning

Wrong from the very first night when you said

We could stay here forever and never ever, ever forget

So we took our love to the sea that night

So see if it could ever swim back, it did and it did

Four hundred thousand times over again

I only wanted to play a part

I wanted to be someone

Who could make it and make it with you

Again and again

Well, go on, go on, you can have your way

I’ll love you till the day that I die

You could have this life and a cup of tea

And take it to bed right now

In a dim lit bar on my side of town

I’ll picture in a green dress

The one that makes me feel alive

Over and over and over again

I only wanted to play a part

I wanted to be someone

Who could make it and make it with you

Again and again

Only wanted to play a part

I wanted to be someone

Who could make it and make it with you

Again and again

Wanted to play the part

Wanted to be someone with you

I only wanted to play a part

I wanted to be someone

Who could make it and make it with you

Again and again
