lyrics

Verse I
I was dancing my way through
And I wanna be alone with you
You caught my eye like a deja vu
After rainy days and feeling blue

You react like an animal stuck in a cage
And all you wanna do is run away
And you tried to find the thing that burns inside
But you can’t find love if you’re afraid of heights

Pre-Chorus
Don’t give up on me now
Just give in
Don’t give up on me now
And let me in

Chorus
If love is not a game
Why do I keep on losing
If love is not a game
Why do I keep on losing

Verse II
Is there something we can undo
Cause I can’t play without you
And It feels like a deja vu
You didn’t follow the rules

You walked through the door with my stuff in your hands
And I wonder what happend this is not what I planned
And I can’t believe this is what you’re really up to
Now I’m dealing my cards without you

Chorus II
If love is not a game
Why do I keep on losing
If love is not a game
Why do I keep on losing, losing
Why do I keep on losing
Why do I keep on losing, losing

Bridge
If love is not a game
If love is not a game
Why do I keep on losing
If love is not a game
Why do I keep on losing

Chorus III
If love is not a game
Why do I keep on losing
If love is not a game
Why do I keep on losing, losing
Why do I keep on losing
Why do I keep on losing, losing
