“Game to Lose” is the second single from See You Around and the album’s first music video, directed by Canadian-American filmmaker Genéa Gaudet.
Described by I’m With Her as an evocative track, it brings a melodic mixture of Watkins‘ fiddle and Jarosz’ mandolin. Along with powerful vocal harmonies...
[Verse 1: Aoife O'Donovan, Sarah Jarosz & Sara Watkins]
Tell it to me, spit it out
If you push me
I'll just get up
Tell it to me
Keep it coming
I'm on the ropes
But I got something that you can't see
Keep it coming
[Pre-Chorus: Aoife O'Donovan, O'Donovan & Sarah Jarosz, O'Donovan, Jarosz & Sara Watkins]
There's always another corner
Makes me wonder how
[Chorus: Aoife O'Donovan]
How much longer is it gonna be?
Before I get where I'm going
Get what I need
You gotta give to get
You gotta be game to lose
[Verse 2: Aoife O'Donovan, Sarah Jarosz & Sara Watkins/O'Donovan]
A couple other
Rounds ahead
Getting closer, no, I won't slow down
Just a little longer
Think about it
What's the next move? And the next one?
When is enough enough?
When the going gets tough
Where can you go?
[Pre-Chorus: Aoife O'Donovan, O'Donovan & Sarah Jarosz, O'Donovan, Jarosz & Sara Watkins]
There's always another corner
Makes me wonder how
[Chorus: Aoife O'Donovan]
How much longer is it gonna be?
Before I get where I'm going
Get what I need
You gotta give to get
You gotta be game to lose
[Chorus: Aoife O'Donovan]
How much faster can somebody run
If you're chasing a lover
And the noonday sun
Is beating down on you
And making it hard to breathe
[Chorus: Aoife O'Donovan, Sarah Jarosz & Sara Watkins]
How much longer is it gonna be?
Before I get where I'm going
Get what I need
You gotta give to get
You gotta be game to lose
