But once you find me the game is over And I can run but only so far You've got a compass pointing you right back to me I could buy a boat, sail off into the sea Build a home in a foreign country But you've memorized the places that I'll be When you and I are playing hide and seek Will you send our old friends out on a scavenger hunt? You are the warden, I am the bandit on the run But once you find me, the game is over And I can run but only so far You've got a compass pointing you right back to us I could buy a boat, sail off into the sea Build a home in a foreign country But you've memorized the places that I'll be When you and I are playing hide and seek I could find a forest full of different trees Build a stronghold out of all the leaves But you'd always find a way to get to me When you and I are playing hide and seek (Seek, hide and seek) (Seek, seek, hide and seek) (Seek, hide and seek) (Hide and seek) (Hide and seek) We're always playing hide and seek You know the way to get to me We're always playing hide and seek You know the way to get to me I could buy a boat sail off into the sea I could build a home in a foreign country But you'll always find a way to get to me When you and I are playing hide and seek
