The Game
Reyko Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh! How I wish somebody joined me for the game
Oh! How I wish somebody joined me for the game
Oh! How I wish somebody joined me for the game
I wish somebody played with me before it gets too late
I know this is my last destination
I'm craving little more recreation
If only I could find what I came for
The ticking clock just makes me impatient

Bit by bit it's slipping by
While a I'm trying to reach new highs
Bit by bit it's slipping by
While I try to freeze the time
Oh! How I wish somebody joined me for the game
Oh! How I wish somebody joined me for the game
Oh! How I wish somebody joined me for the game
I wish somebody played with me before it gets too late
I know I'm getting closer and closer
To not needing to keep my composure
Cause that's the reason why I came this far
The clock keeps ticking over and over
Bit by bit it's slipping by
While a I'm trying to reach new highs
Bit by bit it's slipping by
While I try to trick the time
I won't give up until I find
I won't give up until I find
I won't give up until I find
Until I find
The perfect type

Oh! How I wish somebody joined me for the game
Oh! How I wish somebody joined me for the game

Oh! How I wish somebody joined me for the game
I wish somebody played with me before it gets too late
