They say passion rules me
I guess I played it fast once or twice
Can't say I feel guilty
Just depends who's rollin' my dice
While I was caught up in the game, yeah
I was playin' unaware
And he struck me down mid aim
And then he left me, he left me hangin' 'round in mid air
I hate to play games
He'll never understand
Once you're locked in his chains
Your heart has spoken, so let go
Let go
Used a spade, sent me flyin'
Ace of clubs, you should have bet on my heart
In his eyes, I saw diamonds
This, my friend, is where the problem starts
He holds his cards close so tight
So he'll never know the things I feel
Yes, he holds me all through the night
But my heart is open, open and ready to steal
I hate to play games
He'll never understand
Once you're locked in his chains
Your heart has spoken, so let go
Let go
Either way, I can't win
You choose to live or choose to hide
Either way, it's not him
That's why my hands, my feet
My tired, beaten body has died
Has died
Ooh-woah-oh
I hate to play games
He'll never understand
Once you're locked in his chains
Your heart has spoken, so let go
I hate playing games
He'll never understand
Once you're locked, locked in his chains
Your heart is spoken for
So let it go
