Loosing the Love Game

[Sheila]

Round and Round I go
Only to stop at the familiar spots
Which usually leave me dying alone

When you realize that it's the nice guy you want
It is often too late
They are either married, love scorn , or gay

so I am debating
contemplating
maybe even now calculating -- the worth
of the Love Game

Worth the tears?
Worth the years of deceit?
NO
I'm loosing the Love game

Not bitter , just sad
Not mad , just broken
Was it worth all the lies left spoken and unspoken?
NO

I'd give anything for my fears to just go away
But they linger into the darkest night to my dismay
I understand now
I keep my heart hidden
You know the saying once shy once bitten?

Not bitter , just sad
Not mad, just broken
Was it worth all the lies left spoken and unspoken?
No

I'm loosing and not my religion as R.E.M said
I'm loosing myself in every lie told
I would rather die lonely
Then to hear another liar's story unfold

I bid you fare -well
And all the best
Love kicked my ass
I've explained the rest

Not bitter, just sad
Not mad , just broken
Was it worth all the lies left spoken and unspoken?
NO
