Lyrics I Was A Playboy - Joe Henry

I Was A Playboy

I was a playboy
In love with the world
I walked with the angels
Every stone left unhurled
Every breeze took me higher
Every door set me free
Oh, I was a playboy
And you just a plaything to me
My laughter came easy
And so did the days
The flowered and faded
And it felt like the way
And it flew up behind me
Like good times they followed me
Oh, I was a playboy
And you just a plaything to me
Now I’ve been here for hours
Awake in my bed
Alone with the clever
All the quick and the dead
And all the misguided
Who keep me company
Oh, I was a playboy
And you just a plaything to me
Just a plaything to me
Just a plaything to me
