Story Behind The Song
Writing the song reminded me of some the the movies themes of the great heartbreaking love stories. It has a slight Latin feel to it that you hear in many of the Spainish Soap Operas if I had played it as a "Bolero".
Song Description
The song refects how love can be a game and how people can hurt each other but the one who is hurt will triumph in the end

Intro
Verse 1
What foolish game did love play
That made you go on your way
Why did you promise that you'd Always be true
I never thought it would end
We had been lovers and best of friends
You touched my soul, why did you go ( To Coda)
Tears flow from my eyes since you went away
What was The Game you played
Verse11
I felt the warmth in the air
Just knowing that you were here
You held my heart
And made it part of your own
But somehow this couldn't last
And I would long for the past
Don't give into what you feel
Though you may think it's real
Chorus
Now that you're gone
I will have to move on
And be more wise
Learn to open up my eyes
And from the start
Looking for signs that break your heart
Never to trust a burning kiss
So there is nothing more (left) to miss
But if I should
I'll be the one who is through
Be aware how love can lie
I'll stop myself before the goodbyes
Bridge (eight bars solo)
I'll play The Game
But not the same
So if I want to take a chance
I'll be prepared to dance
D.S. al Coda ( Back to beginning, till Coda sign)
Coda
I will close my heart and forget your name
That is the way to play The Game.
