I had to start over, I was playing with my gloves on
I started over ‘cos I got it wrong
You know you can’t play, can’t play with your gloves on
There ain’t no way when the feeling’s gone
You can see the people just diggin’ their ways
Everyone wants you to play your songs
Reeling, screaming, anticipating
You try to play and it comes out wrong
You got your gloves on
You got them on
It’s always a fight tryin’ to play with your gloves on
Can’t get it right when you play it wrong
It’s so hard to feel playing with your gloves on
You can only steal when you got ‘em on
There is gloves of nature, there is gloves of war
Can’t figure out what you wear ‘em for
The only way you’re gonna be sure
Is to take off the gloves if you wanna play, wanna play more
Take off your gloves
Take ‘em off
I had to start over, I was playing with my gloves on
I started over ‘cos I got it wrong
You know you can’t play, can’t play with gloves on
There ain’t no way when the feeling’s gone
‘Cos the gloves will kill everything that you feel
Until finally nothing at all is real
They keep you away from what you should be
The only way you’re gonna be free
Is take ‘em off
Take off your gloves
Take ‘em off
If you wanna be free
You gotta take ‘em off
If you wanna be free
Take ‘em off, your gloves
You gotta take ‘em off
Take off your gloves
