Love Is Just A Game

Love is just a game
A game that I have played
To make believe there's something more in store
But somewhere in the end
I see that I've failed again
And I can't see the shoreline from the shore (I just can't make it)
I'll find a way back to the door

Is there any doubt or wonder
Nothing really lasts forever
That you need a brand new lover now
Who will hold you like no other one
Like all those times I felt like crying
Now I almost feel like laughing
'cause ain't it sweet...like a brand-new leaf
Ain't it sweet...it only took a little understanding

It's hard to be alone sometimes
I'm scared to even phone a friend
'cause everyone's heard the same old shit before
I've tried to show the world I'm strong
But really I know all along
I can't see the sunshine anymore
I'll find a way back to the door

Is there any doubt or wonder
Nothing really lasts forever
That you need a brand new lover now
Who will hold you like no other one
Like all those times I felt like crying
Now I almost feel like laughing
'cause ain't it sweet...like a brand-new leaf
Ain't it sweet...it only took a little understanding
