Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But its 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 heart can rise above
Once in a while he won't call
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 heart will fly away
Many a tear has to fall
But its 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 heart can rise above
Once in a while he won't call
But its 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 heart will fly away
