Lyrics:
Many a tear has to fall
but it's all... in the game
All in the wonderful game
that we know... as love
You had 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 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 heart will fly away

but it's all... in the game
with a sweet, bouquet
And then he'll kiss... your lips
and caress your waiting fingertips
and your heart will fly away
and your heart will fly away
