You say you love me,
I change the subject, oh.
We're learning the game.
You think it's easy,
I've seen the rule book, no.
It's so hard to play.
Learning the game,
looks like we've started something,
looks like it's you and me again.
Learning the game,
acting like teenage lovers,
but everyone knows how these things end.
You want to know me,
I wanna know you too,
so we're learning the game.
But you gotta show me
the private side of you
because it's never the same.
Learning the game,
afraid of the situation,
so hard to be sure just what it's worth.
Learning the game,
it's the usual hesitation,
both knowing how badly love can hurt.
You know we're learning the game.
It's acceptable conversation,
but you wanna hear those magic words.
We're just learning the game, baby.
Such incredible expectations,
both hoping that this time it will work.
Looks like the caution's
not worth the time it wastes
because the beauty remains.
Even a rainbow finally fades to grey,
but still the beauty remains.
The beauty remains
when the passionate act is over
and the players have gone their separate ways.
You know the beauty remains.
Those moments can live forever,
the pain and the laughter's all part of
learning the game.
