*Instrumental intro*
(Verse 1)
Sometimes you're at home,
Sunday never seems to end
And the hours keep running slowly through your hands
It's another weekend, and he's off to play
Once again, he's so far away...
Sometimes you're alone
You don't like the way it is
Was your life with him supposed to be like this?
But when he's back at home with you, it's just alright
'Cause you feel... feel it deep inside!
(Chorus)
It's just a game, forever young
It's in your heart, it's in your mind
And when you play you've gotta play it right
Make the best of it, and leave the rest behind...!
It's just a game, but strong enough
To bring joy and fun to all of mankind!
(Verse 2)
Sometimes you could cry
When you see it's going wrong
'Cause the game reflects the violence of our time
Anger and destruction sometimes spoil the game
But it won't ever kill the flame!
Sometimes it's so hard
To be on the loser's side
And the winner always seems to take it all
The times they are a-changin', and you win again
And you get all you wanted in the end...!
(Chorus)
It's just a game, forever young
It's in your heart, it's in your mind
And when you play you've gotta play it right
Make the best of it, and leave the rest behind...!
It's just a game, but strong enough
To bring joy and fun to all of mankind!
*Guitar solo*
It's just a game, forever young
Make the best of it, and leave the rest behind...!
It's just a game, but it is strong enough
To bring joy and fun to all of mankind!
