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
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
Tho’ I battled blind,
Love is a fate resigned
Memories mar my mind,
Love it is a fate resigned
Over futile odds,
And laughed at by the Gods
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game
