Playtime
I walk round the playground, not looking,
just kicking the stones by the wall.
I walk round the playground, not looking,
not caring, not caring at all
that everyone’s laughing and running,
that everyone else has a friend.
I walk round the playground, not looking,
just wishing that playtime would end.
just kicking the stones by the wall.
I walk round the playground, not looking,
not caring, not caring at all
that everyone’s laughing and running,
that everyone else has a friend.
I walk round the playground, not looking,
just wishing that playtime would end.
