I was told a story about a little boy Who grew up never knowing where he came from But he was blessed with the answers by the time he was twenty-five As fate would have it unfortunately His mother had been dead for quite some time But by chance he heard his daddy was still alive He met the man who was supposed to be But instinct told him differently By the time it would take him to put away his fear and pride He’d buy a ticket to the place where he felt his father would be Then he turned on the telly and heard the news The man had died Although I know it means everything to you and me Some pretend that they don’t care Well I’ve tried time and time again To win only to lose and to learn Love it don’t play fair Love it don’t play fair Now this young man Well he spends most of his days Working hour after hour Just to make a future for himself But in those gaps in between When he’s not slaving away aimlessly
He’s wondering what it would be like to be somebody else But the irony of it is He’s exactly who he needs to be And little does he know Fate has a bigger plan for him Much like love Life leaves so much mystery Yet there’s a place where we can get answers in the end Although I know it means everything to you and me Some pretend that they don’t care Well I’ve tried time and time again To win only to lose and to learn Love it don’t play fair Let the moral of this story be -- Love All You Can Try to love every boy girl woman and every man ‘Cause you never know what they may have missed out on along the way Try to love somebody – Everyday Although I know it means everything to you and me Some pretend that they don’t care Well I’ve tried time and time again To win only to lose and to learn Love it don’t play fair Love it don’t play fair
