CATCH AND RELEASE
© 2015 Grahame Waghorn 

VERSE 1
You’ve got me where you want me,
You’ve got me in your arms.
The chase is finally over,
I've fallen for your charms.

But as I offer up my lips
I see your eyes stray.
I feel your grip relaxing.
And watch you slip away.

CHORUS
Catch and Release.
It’s a game that you play.
You’d rather be hunting,
Than be trapped in anyway.
You lured me to the crosshairs,
Then you pack the gun away.
​Catch and Release,
to you love's just a game.

VERSE 2
I’m standing like a fool,
Mouth open in surprise.
I can’t believe your sweet talk,
was just a pack of lies.

I thought love was the reason
For the passion on your face,
but now I know that all I saw
was just the thrill of the chase

CHORUS 2 – same as CHORUS 1

VERSE 3
To tell you the truth
I’m not the least bit hurt.
I went in with my eyes open.
I’m just the biggest flirt.

I meant to take you for a ride,
Things didn’t go as planned.
'Cos all that I intended,
Was just a one night stand

CHORUS 3
Catch and release,
It’s a game that two can play.
You won this battle,
but I’ll win some other day.
You put one over on me
but it’s time to call a truce.
Catch and release,
There’s others to seduce.
Catch and release
The predator's are on the loose
