Lover's Game Lyrics

Well, I just cannot tell one from the other,
That's the way it's got to be.
So I lay my feet in front of the other
'Til they come right back to me.

There's nothing we can do,
We were born to die fools.
There's nothing we can do,
We were born to die fools.

Well, they say you get it if you got it coming,
It's a lie we've got to keep;
And when I close my eyes my mind starts to running,
But it's you I want to see.

There's nothing we can do,
We were born to die fools.
There's nothing we can do,
We were born to die fools.

I wonder who's watching,
Underneath the night somewhere.
I wonder if we're all so far, now,
From who we were.
I wonder if I lived for nothin';
I wonder if I did at all.
I wonder if I ever loved you
For who you are.

Well, I just cannot tell one from the other,
That's the way it's got to be.
So I lay my feet in front of the other
'Til they come right back to me.

There's nothing we can do,
We were born to die fools.
There's nothing we can do,
We were born to die fools.

There's nothing we can do,
We were born to die fools.
There's nothing we can do,
We were born to die fools.

We were born to die fools.
We were born to die fools.

Cover art for Lover's Game lyrics by Geographer

The beautiful thing about Geographer's music is that I feel like every last word of their song applies to my life as if the song was written for me.This song reminds me of my former girlfriend, who broke up with me.

"Well, I just cannot tell one from the other, That's the way it's got to be." I had started going out with her very hastily and as a result, hadn't wasn't really that into her. My affections hadn't quite moved away from my past loves.

"There's nothing we can do, We were born to die fools."

I knew from the start that our relationship was doomed. Her father didnt want us to see each other and we didn't have the bond to keep it going under such adversity.

"Well, they say you get it if you got it coming, It's a lie we've got to keep;"

I had never been in an official relationship before. I had always dreamed, or even expected, that my first girlfriend would make all of those years of heartbreak worth it. However, I wasn't happy at all. But I couldn't admit to it, so I kept the lie a secret.

"And when I close my eyes my mind starts to running, But it's you I want to see."

When we were together, she was everything, but when I was alone, "my mind started to running" to every girl BUT her. I wanted more than anything to think of only her. My lack of devotion made me so guilty.

"I wonder if I'm here for nothin'; I wonder if I'm here at all. I wonder if I ever loved you For who you are."

She was never really affectionate and I feel like she was going through exactly what I was. She never called unless I called first and we barely got to see each other.
