Play It Cool

Lyrics
Verse 1
M
We talk like old friends
Like there ain't no spark
You laugh at my jokes
Then you stare too hard
F
I keep my hands still
I keep my face calm
I say I don't need this
Then I take too long
M
You lean in slow
Then you pull away
Like you scared of the fire
But you want the flame
Verse 2
F
I tell myself "not yet"
Then I call you back
Keep one foot in
And one foot packed
M
You act all cool
Like it don't mean much
But your eyes say yes
When we almost touch
F
I don't want a promise
I don't want a chain
I just don't want to lose you
If it all changes
Pre-Chorus
M
Say what you want
Don't hide your nerve
F
I'm scared of the after
Not the curve
M
You keep on stalling
I keep on calm
F
We know this silence
Won't last that long
Chorus
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
We both want more
But we both want to stay free
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
Don't make me choose
If you still might leave me
M
I know you want me
F
I know you know
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
Before it goes
Verse 3
M
I leave a little space
You fill it with a glance
We dance around truth
Like a second chance
F
I don't want too late
I don't want too fast
I don't want to wake up
And watch it pass
M
So we keep the game soft
Keep the line thin
Act like we ain't been
Thinking where to begin
Pre-Chorus
F
Say what you feel
Then let it breathe
M
I'm right here waiting
If you want me
F
I freeze, then smile
Then change my tone
M
You don't have to hide it
I already know
Chorus
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
We both want more
But we both want to stay free
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
Don't make me choose
If you still might leave me
M
I know you want me
F
I know you know
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
Before it goes
Bridge
F
If I let you in
Would you hold me right
M
If I step that close
Would you run tonight
F
I'm not made of steel
I'm just hard to read
M
And I'm not above
Wanting what you need
F
Maybe that's the danger
M
Maybe that's the truth
Both
We keep on circling
'Til we break through
Final Chorus
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
We both want more
But we both want to stay free
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
Don't make me choose
If you still might leave me
M
I know you want me
F
I know you know
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
Before it goes
Both
Play it cool
Play it cool
Before it goes
