Lyrics
I’m playin’ for keeps
This time it’s real
And I want you to know
Exactly how I feel
I’m playin’ for keeps
I’m sure this time
And I won’t be happy
Until I know you’re mine
There have been others
That could love me true
But no one else can thrill me like you do
I’m playin’ for keeps
Oh love me too
Oh, don’t make me sorry
That I fell in love with you
There have been others
That could love me true
But no one else can thrill me like you do
I’m playin’ for keeps
Oh love me too
Oh, don’t make me sorry
That I fell in love with you
