Wake up my sweet child

There's something I've got to say to you tonight

It's time you took a look at me

'Cause there's so much more to me than meets the eye



Well, there's more to love than makin' time

The harder you look the more you'll find

It's never easy - no matter what they say



Chorus:

Love's a hard game to play

The heart's the price you pay

Love's a hard game to play

No matter what they say

Win or lose, no matter what they say

Love's a hard game to play



The problem here is not my fear

The trouble is you can't convince yourself

For tonight, let's lose the past

Make love last - Put our worries up on the shelf



We've been through thick and thin, and back again

And we can endure love's sweet pain

Remember, starting the fire is easy

The hardest part is learning how to keep the flame



Love's like walking a real fine line

You get too close and you'll go blind

Let go too long and it will drift away



Repeat Chorus



Just when I feel like I'm losin' you

I hear the voices call

They say it's better to have lost at love

Than never to have loved at all

Lose or win, stand or fall



Well, there's more to love than makin' time

The harder you look, the more you'll find

It's never easy, no matter what they say

Love's a hard game to play

A hard game to play
