[Intro: Brian]
Baby, oh-oh

[Verse 1: Brian]
Even in my heart, I see
You're not being true to me
Deep within my soul, I feel
Nothing's like it used to be

[Pre-Chorus: Brian]
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby

[Chorus: Brian & All]
Quit playing games with my heart
Quit playing games with my heart (my heart)
Before you tear us apart (my heart)
Quit playing games with my heart
I should've known from the start
You know you've got to stop (from my heart)
You're tearing us apart (my heart)
Quit playing games with my heart

[Verse 2: Brian]
I live my life the way
To keep you coming back to me
Everything I do is for you
So what is it that you can't see

[Pre-Chorus: Brian]
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby
You better

[Chorus: Brian & All]
Quit playing games with my heart
Quit playing games with my heart (my heart)
Before you tear us apart (my heart)
Quit playing games with my heart
I should've known from the start
You know you've got to stop (from my heart)
You're tearing us apart (my heart)
Quit playing games

[Bridge: AJ with Kevin]
Baby, baby!
The love that we had was so strong
Don't leave me hanging here forever
Oh baby, baby, this is not right
Let's stop this tonight

[Interlude: Brian & All]
Baby, oh-oh
Quit playing games
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na, baby
Na na na na na na

[Pre-Chorus: Brian]
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby

[Chorus: Brian & All]
Quit playing games with my heart
Quit playing games with my heart (my heart)
Before you tear us apart (my heart)
Quit playing games with my heart
I should've known from the start
You know you've got to stop (from my heart)
You're tearing us apart (my heart)
Quit playing games with my heart

[Outro: Brian & All]
Quit playing games with my heart
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na, baby
Na na na na na na na
Quit playing games with my heart
Na na na na na na na
From my heart
Na na na na na, baby
With my heart, my heart

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
