For you I was a flame Love is a losing game Five story fire as you came Love is a losing game One I wished I never played Oh what a mess we made And now the final frame Love is a losing game Played out by the band Love is a losing hand More than I could stand Love is a losing hand Self professed, profound Till the chips were down Though you're a gambling man Love is a losing hand Though I'd rather blind Love is a fate resigned Memories mar my mind Love is a fate resigned Over futile odds And laughed at by the Gods And now the final frame Love is a losing game
