Song lyrics

Send "Work" ringtones to your cell

If you only once would let me 
Only just one time 
Then be happy with the consequence 
With whatever's gonna happen tonight 

Don't think we're not serious 
When's it ever not? 
The love we make is give and its take 
I'm game to play along 

All I can say 
I shouldn't say 
Can we take a ride? 
Get out of this place while we still have time. 

All the best DJ's are saving 
Their slowest song for last 
When the dance is through it's me and you 
C'mon would it really be so bad? 

The things we think might be the same 
But I won't fight for more 
It's just not me to wear it on my sleeve 
Count on that for sure 

All I can say 
I shouldn't say 
Can we take a ride? 
Get out of this place while we still have time. 
You wanna take a ride? 
Get out of this place while we still have time. 
Yeah we still have time. 

Can't say I was never wrong 
But some blame rests on you 
Work and play they're never ok 
To mix the way we do 

All I can say 
I shouldn't say 
Can we take a ride? 
Get out of this place while we still have time. 
You wanna take a ride? 
Get out of this place while we still have time. 
Yeah we still have time.
