Found on Your Move and The Very Best Of America.

I don't understand it 'cause you won't say yes

But you don't say no

Sayin' no we shouldn't you keep holdin' out

But you don't let go

I'm givin' up on trying

To sell you things that you ain't buying

It's your move (your move)

I played all of mine

Time (ah) is running out

Make your move (your move)

Or we can't go on

Till (ah) you understand

It's all in your hands

It's your move

You're giving me the business with that old come on

But you don't come across

You get me so excited don't you know you're such a tease

When I think you're gettin' hot, you're not

(Oo) So what's the problem, what's wrong

This kiss and miss you know it can't go on

It's your move (your move)

I played all of mine

Time (ah) is running out

Make your move (your move)

Or we can't go on

Till (ah) you understand

It's all in your hands

It's your move

(Know it can't go on) Go on

I'm givin' up on trying now it's (your move)

Girl, if you ain't buyin' now it's (your move)

I gave it all I got now it's (your move)

I thought you were hot but you're not so it's (your move, your move, your move)

It's your move (your move, ah)

I played all of mine

Time is running out

Make your move (ah, oh)

Or we can't go on

Till you understand

It's all in your hands

It's your move

It's your move (your move, ah)

I played all of mine

Time is running out

Make your move (ah, oh)

Or we can't go on

Till you understand

It's all in your hands

It's your move

It's your move (your move, ah)

I played all of mine

Time is running out

Make your move (your move, ah)

Or we can't go on

Till you understand

It's all in your hands

It's your move ...
