Man, I can't believe I was such a fool
And let you get away from me, hey
Damn

You whispered in my ear
As soft as a summer breeze
Baby don't leave me
And I was a fool
Who didn't have the strength to walk away from you
And so I chose to lose

And love's a game, I played and lost
Should've learned my lesson yesterday
When yesterday was far away
And love's a game, I paid the cost
Should've learned my lesson yesterday
When yesterday was so, so far away
So, so, so far away

The day turns into night
And yet and still I fight to carry on without you
But what's a man to do?
So I cried, cried myself to sleep every night
Where are you? Are you coming back?
Said, 'I'm 'bout to have a heart attack, baby, oh yeah'

And love's a game, I played and lost
Should've learned my lesson yesterday
When yesterday was far away, far away, far away
Love's a game, I paid the cost
Should've learned my lesson yesterday
When yesterday was so, so far away

Far away, far away, far away
Far away, far away, far away
