don't play the game

the hardest thing you ever do

is love yourself

that gal don't love you

she'll cause you sleepless nights and endless pain

but if you don't like the rules don't play the game. everytime that girl walks by

your heart will ache your very soul will die

but love's one sided it's just yourself to blame

and if you don't like the rules don't play the game. you think by now i see the fool i've been

given my heart a chance to win

well

i do but i don't

i will but i won't

deep inside i know i'll do again. the hardest thing you ever do

is love yourself

that gal don't love you

with love one sided it's just yourself to blame

and if you don't like the rules don't play the game. if you don't like the rules don't play the game.
