Crooked Game
Endless stretch of highway unfolds before our eyes
Thinkin' about the past we left and when the future will arrive
It's been so many days now since we left our happy home
And I can't wait to see you, girl, and spend some time alone...
Time alone
Thinkin' 'bout my recent past and how many things have changed
If I didn't know any better girl, I'd think they were arranged
I've thought a while longer now and I think I have a clue
All of my good fortune can be traced right back to you...
Back to you
[Chorus]
And I think I'd like to know all about you
And talk about the things we'll do the same
'cause I'm afraid we'll soon come to realize
That we're just players in a crooked game
Thinkin' 'bout the time we've spent lazin' in the sun
The only thing that I can hope is that I'm not the only one
We've both gone through our changes to get where we are now
And I'd come running back to you if only I knew how...
I knew how
Up and down those highways lookin' at all the signs
It's getting so much harder now to stay between the lines
We talk about the weather to avoid our lonesome pain
In a world that's more concerned with the losses and the gains...
And the gains
[Chorus]
And I think I'd like to know all about you
And talk about the things we'll do the same
'cause I'm afraid we'll soon come to realize
That we're just two players in this crooked game
