Love’s a Hard Game to Play Songtext
von Stevie Nicks

Wake up my sweet child
Something I′ve got to say to you tonight
That it's time you took a look inside
′Cause there's so much more to me than meets the eye

Well, there's more to love than makin′ time
The harder you look, the more you′ll find
It's never easy, no matter what they say

Love′s a hard game to play
The heart's the price you pay
Love′s a hard game to play
No matter what they say
Win or lose, no matter what they say
Love's a hard game to play

Problem here is not my fear
Trouble is you can′t convince yourself (you can't convince yourself)
For tonight, let's lose the past
Make love last, put our worries on the shelf


We′ve been through thick and thin, and back again
We can endure love′s sweet pain
Well remember, starting the fire is easy
The hardest part is learning how to keep the flame

Love's like walking a real fine line
You get too close, you′ll go blind
Let go too long, it will all drift away

Love's a hard game to play
The heart′s the price you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
So win or lose, no matter what to say

Just when I feel like I′m losin' you
I hear those voices call
They say it's better to have lost at love
Than never to have loved at all
Lose or win, stand or fall
Stand tall

Well, there′s more to love than makin′ time
The harder you look, the more you'll find
It′s never easy, no matter what they say
Love's a hard game to play, baby


Love′s a hard game to play
The heart's the price you pay
Love′s a hard game to play
Don't you know that, no matter what they say

Love's a hard game to play
The heart′s the price you pay
Love′s a hard game to play
No matter what they say
'Cause win or lose, no matter what they say
But love′s a hard game to play
Hard game, hard game to play
