The Game
Love's Game of Intrigue: Sarah Fairfield's Melodic Riddle
Lyrics
Oh, I like to play
Expressing a desire or enjoyment for engaging in some activity.
Play with you and your woman too
Indicating a willingness to be involved with both the listener and their partner romantically or intimately.
Don't you dare say you will win
Challenging the idea that the listener will emerge victorious in the situation being discussed.
Cause nobody wins in this game
Asserting that no one triumphs or achieves success in the context of the mentioned "game."
Still I like to play
Reiterating the enjoyment of participating in the activity despite its competitive nature.
And judging from the look of you
Observing that the listener also seems to enjoy the game based on their appearance.
You like it too
Acknowledging the mutual interest and pleasure derived from the shared activity.
Don't you dare say you will win
Warning against claiming victory, as the speaker has never experienced defeat in this particular game.
Cause I never lost this game
Emphasizing the speaker's undefeated status in the mentioned game.
I want to know all about you
Expressing a curiosity and desire to learn more about the listener.
And your woman too
Extending this curiosity to include knowledge about the listener's partner.
I want to see all there is to see
Expressing a desire to explore and understand every aspect of the listener's life.
Why don't you come and have a look with me
Inviting the listener to join the speaker in this exploration.
Here and now's what counts
Stating the importance of the present moment.
Don't take me for a fool there's no exception to the rule
Cautioning against underestimating the speaker and emphasizing adherence to a particular rule or principle.
We fool around till someone falls in love
Describing engaging in casual or playful activities until someone falls in love.
Someone gets lost in this game
Noting the possibility of someone getting emotionally entangled or lost in the mentioned game.
I want to know all about you
Reiterating the desire to learn more about the listener and their partner.
And your woman too
Continuing the curiosity about the listener's life and relationships.
I want to see all there is to see
Expressing a desire to witness and experience all aspects of the listener's world.
Why don't you come and have a look with me
Repeating the invitation for the listener to join the speaker in exploring their lives together.
I want to see through your eyes
Expressing a desire to understand the listener's perspective by seeing things through their eyes.
I want to know where you are
Expressing a desire to know the listener's whereabouts.
What are you doing, who do you talk to
Inquiring about the listener's activities, companions, and interests.
Do you like to play this game
Prompting the listener to reveal whether they enjoy participating in the mentioned game.
So you tell me I'm not so tough
Responding to a statement suggesting the speaker is not tough.
And I shouldn't think I'm strong enough
Dismissing the notion of being strong enough and discouraging thoughts of love.
I'm not even going to call this love
Rejecting the characterization of the relationship as love.
So what do you say we go for another round
Suggesting a willingness to continue the playful and competitive activity.
