All your expectations of my love are impossible
Surely, you know that I'm not easy to hold
It's so sad how incapable of learning to grow I am
My heart speaks in puzzle and codes
I've been trying my whole life to solve
God only knows how I've cried
I can't take another defeat
A next time would be the ending of me
Now that I see
That love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling
Fooling
What a cruel thing
Cruel thing
To self-inflict that pain
Love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling again
Fooling
What a cruel thing
Cruel thing
To self-inflict that pain
How unbelievable
Unbelievable
Of me to fall for the lies that I tell
Lies I tell
The dream that I sell
Dream I sell
When heartache, it's inevitable
And unbearable
But I'm no good at doing it well
Not that I care
I don't care
Why should anything about it be fair?
When love is a game for fools to play?
And I ain't fooling
Fooling
What a cruel thing
Cruel thing
To self-inflict that pain
Love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling again
Fooling
What a cruel thing
Cruel thing
To self-inflict that pain
No amount of love
Can keep me satisfied
Satisfied, satisfied
I can't keep up
Can't keep up, can't keep up
When I keep changing my mind
Change my mind, change my mind
The feelings flood me
To the heights of no compromise
Love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling
Fooling
What a cruel thing
Cruel thing
To self-inflict that pain
Love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling
Fooling
What a cruel thing
Cruel thing
To self-inflict that pain
Oh, you know, I'd do it all again
I love it now like I loved then
I'm a fool for that
You know I, you know I'm gonna do it
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'd do it all again, like I did then
