Sometimes it’s a blessing, sometimes it’s a curse
And you don’t know if being in
Or out of it is worse
Sometimes there’s too little
Sometimes there’s too much
And it can come alive or die away
With just a touch
Still we try to keep that flame of hope alight
‘Cos it’s the only thing that
Make sense of our lives

The game of love - We play to win
And when our hearts come tumbling down
We try to pick them up again
Each time we fall it hurts so much
It’s hard to remember it’s the playing,
Not the winning in the game of love

Sometimes it’ll fool you into
Thinking it’s here to stay
Sometimes it’ll rule your heart, then turn and walk away
Like an angel on your shoulder, it can give you wings to fly
Or send you crashing to the ground without a reason why
Still in every heart a candle’s burning bright
To help us find our way togheter through
The long and lonely night

The game of love - We play to win
And when our hearts come tumbling down
We try to pick them up again
Each time we fall it hurts so much
It’s hard to remember it’s the giving,
Not the taking in the game of love

Now you and me, we’ve got a change to have it all
But will love fade or grow, the future’s not ours to know

Each time we fall it hurts so much
It’s hard to remember it’s the playing,
Not the winning in the game of love
