🎵 Let’s sing along with the 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
