And when the day is done
Its little games are lost or maybe won
I'll close and lock the door and you'll be there
Yes, when the day is done
The prizes lost or won, oh, then I'll be home to stay
We'll love all our past away, just you and me
Just a little smile and all the while
I know how little this all means
People want a part of me
But who they get is never who she seems, who she seems
And when the day is done
I've played my party piece for everyone
I'll close and lock the door and you'll be there
Just a little pain and then again
You know how little this all means
People want a part of you
But who they get is never who he seems, who she seems
But when I'm with you baby I know just who I am
And no one understands the way that you do, darling
Stepping out each morning I smile and play the part
Of someone strong and smart, it's make believing, it's a living
When I'm with you baby I know just who I am
And no one understands the way that you do, yes, darling
I will keep you with me in ribbons and in bows
In ways you'll never show it's still believing, it's a living
And when I come and go
A game that only you and I can know
I'll turn and lock the door and you'll be there
