Many a tear has to fall but it's all in the game
All in the wonderful game that we know as love
You have words with him and your future's looking dim
But these things your hearts can rise above

Once in a while he won't call but it's all in the game
Soon he'll be there at your side with a sweet bouquet
And he'll kiss your lips and caress your waiting fingertips
And your hearts will fly away

(Soon he'll be there at your side) with a sweet bouquet
Then he'll kiss your lips and caress your waiting fingertips
And your hearts will fly away

I happen to be an English teacher. and every day, while correcting tests and homework, I listen to this music to concentrate!!! No matter how many years go by ,this music will forever stay alive!!!!

I first heard this song in a 1980s teen comedy set in the 50s called “Mischief” (1985, a very underrated movie of that genre imao). Btw, this song has an interesting backstory: The music was actually written by Charles C. Dawes who was VP under President Calvin Coolidge. He originally named it “Melody in A Major” in 1911. In 1958 lyrics were added to the music that became Tommy Edwards classic version...😎

This song brings back such sweet childhood memories...I was about 5, and my daddy, mother, brother and I sitting in daddy's big old car at our favorite drive-in, under a big shade tree at night, a full moon and a summer breeze blowing through the windows, eating a steak basket and a milkshake. This song came on the radio and I was mesmerized by it. I thought it was the most beautiful song I'd ever heard!. Those times were pretty perfect to me and brings tears to my eyes because our parents drowned just 9 years later. They were wonderful!

Thanks for the kind words, Mark. They mean a lot to me. These past two weeks have been hell. The many sweet memories we made together constantly torment me, and I get upset by them so easily. But every day has been a little bit better, so I can only hope that this heartbreak will heal with time.
