The Game of Love

This was written in the mid 1980's [like yesterday's entry] for a someone who was a friend who I wanted to get to know better... It never happened... worse things did.

You play the hand you are dealt... then read 'em and weep... or if you are lucky collect the pot and cash out while you luck holds.

This was conceived of as a "fifties Jerry Lee Lewis  / Elvis Presley" kinda track.

The Game of Love

Heart break is an easy game to play
just close you eyes and hope slips away
Still I'd like to know your name
And just how to play the game

CHORUS:
The Game of Love…DIT DAH,DAH DO DAH DAH
The Game of Love…DIT DAH,DAH DO DAH DAH
the Game of Love… DIT DAH,DAH DO DAH DAH
Playin' The Game of Love

I've seen you wandrin' round here
Didn't believe you'd let me near
I know you you got a high class name
But I think we can win the game

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Don't you know every day of livin' is a chance
To make your play at making serious romance
and every moment is a mome passin' you by
so why don't you give it a try

CHORUS

So there you stand so near
Look in my eyes Ya got nothing to fear
If you run there's no one else too blame
So Ain't it time to begin the game?

CHORUS
