For you, I was a flame Love is a losing game Five-storey fire as you came Love is a losing game One I wish 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 Much more than I could stand Love is a losing hand Self-professed, profound 'Til the chips were down Know you're a gambling man Love is a losing hand And though I battle 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
