This Lover's Game

Words by Dave Maswick, Steve Newton and John Anzalone
Music by Dave Maswick

Listen to the mp3

A little house
In a little town
On a quiet street
A light comes on
In the upstairs room
Where I dream we meet

Sometimes, when I close my eyes
I know she can see
We're together as one
My world's complete
She's lovin' me

And the people
Just passing by
Know our names
And smile on us
As they watch us play
This lover's game

Lovers walk by arm in arm
Going home sweet home
While music plays in the small cafe
Where I wait alone

Sometimes, when I close my eyes.....

The day I saw her
I knew
The day her eye caught mine
I knew
But without so much as a word
She walked away
Leaving silence, leaving pain

At times when truth is hard to face
A dream stays a dream
And for fools who can never speak
their hearts, a reoccuring theme

Sometimes, when I close my eyes.....
