LET'S NOT PLAY THE GAMES

We said we'd never play the games
We saw the other people play
A power struggle or
A clash of wills maybe
Well tonight I think that I saw us
Doing things we said that we would not
Let's not make that mistake
Please before it's too late

CHORUS
Oh, Lisa let's not play the games, I need you oh so much
Right now the time is short for us and we must make the most
Of our time togther
There is no forever

I dreamed I saw a dying man
He gestured to me with his hand
I came close so that I could hear
The wisdom of his years

He said when we say we live and learn it's just another way
To say that somebody messed up and I did I know that
I only did my best and trusted good luck for the rest

And to live and learn is fine except we often find
That we have long since past our prime -
That we have run out of time

It's so easy to misconceive each other's actions as misdeeds
There's only right and wrong, there is no compromise
And that's the big mistake we make
We forget about the give and take
The winner takes it all
The loser can take a fall

CHORUS
