The Name of the Game
I was looking for love
for all the wrong reasons
I thought I could trust
with my feet being afraid of the ground
and I hoped I would learn
from those who don't even know themselves
well I guess the joke's on me
you're not to blame
we shouldn't play without knowing the name of the game
I guess the joke's on me
you're not to blame
we shouldn't play without knowing the name of the game
it wasn't love
we thought it was
but it wasn't love
just a silly game we played
it wasn't love
we thought it was
but it wasn't love
just a silly game we played
I was looking for love
in all the wrong places
I was trying to find
a space to hide
shelter from the storm raging on the inside
why o why
I asked myself
is it still hurting
well I guess the joke's on me
you're not to blame
we shouldn't play without knowing the name of the game
I guess the joke's on me
you're not to blame
we shouldn't play without knowing the name of the game
it wasn't love
we thought it was
but it wasn't love
just a silly game we played
it wasn't love
we thought it was
but it wasn't love
just a silly game we played
why do we call it love
when it's really madness
why do we call it love
when all that it leads to is sadness
why do we call it love
when we don't even know what we're handling
why do we call it love
when all we do is rambling and gambling
