Now here you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well, who am I to keep you down?
It's only right that you should play the way you feel it

And what you lost
And what you had
And what you lost

Players only love you when they're playing
Say women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know

I keep my visions to myself
It's only me who wants to wrap around you dreams and,

Dreams of loneliness like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
Ooh, and what you lost

Oh, thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know

Players only love you when they're playing
Say, women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know
You will know
Ahh, you'll know
