HEARTBREAKING GAMES

Being with you
Has left me lonely
And I don’t want
To feel this way
I am so tired
Of trying to hold you
You dealt me cards
I cannot play

The stakes were low
When I first met you
And we had fun
Most of the time
But then you raised
The want to win you
Knowing I  
Won’t bid that high

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Was she sweet, was she worth it
Did you tell her that she’s perfect
Did you warn her there are rules 
To your game
Does she know there is a price
Have a clue you don't play nice
Have you explained that you cheat 
When you play
Your
Heart breaking games
~~*~~

Oh yes I cried
Because I loved you
Your player’s face
Showed no remorse
I could have stayed
Tried hard to win you
But it costs  
More than you worth

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
No one likes a cheater
A shark who’s playing games
Using a heart, like it’s a free card
Ripping it up as he plays
Callous fools, changing the rules
Hiding what should be displayed
The cards aren't right, and I can't fight
Your
Heart breaking games
~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Was she sweet, was she worth it
Did you tell her that she’s perfect
Did you warn her there are rules 
To your game
Does she know there is a price
Have a clue you don't play nice
Have you explained that you cheat 
When you play
Your
Heart breaking games
~~*~~
