The Name Of The Game Lyrics

I've seen you twice, in a short time

 Only a week since we started

 It seems to me, for every time

 I'm getting more open-hearted

 

 I was an impossible case

 No-one ever could reach me

 But I think I can see in your face

 There's a lot you can teach me

 So I wanna know..

 

 What's the name of the game?

 Does it mean anything to you?

 What's the name of the game?

 Can you feel it the way I do?

 Tell me please, 'cause I have to know

 I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow

 

 And you make me talk

 And you make me feel

 And you make me show

 What I'm trying to conceal

 If I trust in you, would you let me down?

 Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you?

 Could you feel the same way too?

 I wanna know..

 

 The name of the game

 

 I have no friends, no-one to see

 And I am never invited

 Now I am here, talking to you

 No wonder I get excited

 

 Your smile, and the sound of your voice

 And the way you see through me

 Got a feeling, you give me no choice

 But it means a lot to me

 So I wanna know..

 

 What's the name of the game? 

 (Your smile and the sound of your voice)

 Does it mean anything to you? 

 (Got a feeling you give me no choice)

 But it means a lot, what's the name of the game? 

 (Your smile and the sound of your voice)

 Can you feel it the way I do?

 Tell me please, 'cause I have to know

 I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow

 

 And you make me talk

 And you make me feel

 And you make me show

 What I'm trying to conceal

 If I trust in you, would you let me down?

 Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you?

 Could you feel the same way too?

 I wanna know..

 Oh yes I wanna know..

 

 The name of the game 

 (I was an impossible case)

 Does it mean anything to you? 

 (But I think I can see in your face)

 That it means a lot

 What's the name of the game? 

 (Your smile and the sound of your voice)

 Can you feel it the way I do? 

 (Got a feeling you give me no choice)

 But it means a lot, what's the name of the game? 

 (I was an impossible case)

 Does it mean anything to you? 

 (But I think I can see in your face)

 That it means a lot
