Isaac Hayes
It’s All In The Game
[Intro]
So now you say it's over, and you don't love him anymore
Who are you trying to fool, me or yourself?
You're not having any luck with either
And you've taken this time to fall in love
And you're gonna fall out of love overnight?
Just because of some quarrel
And your heart is hurting
What about in between the heartaches?
What about when he takes you in his arms and holds you and kisses you
Then you acknowledge your love for him
Look, anything in life that's worth having
You're gonna have your ups and downs
Your good and your bads, your bitters and your sweets
It's all in the game

[Verse 1]
Many a tear has to fall, but it's all in the game
All in the wonderful game that we know as love
You have words with him
And your future's looking dim
But all these things your heart will rise above

[Verse 2]
Once in a while he won't call, but it's all in the game
Soon he'll be there at your side
With a sweet bouquet (He loves you, he really loves you)
[Chorus]
Then he'll kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips (Fingertips)
And your heart is gonna fly (Your heart is gonna fly)
Away (Fly away, fly away)
(Fly away, fly away)

[Refrain]
Then he'll kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips (Fingertips)
And your heart will fly (Your heart is gonna fly)
Away (Fly away, fly away)

[Post-Chorus]
It's all in the game(He loves you, he really loves you)
The game called love (He loves you, he really, really, loves you)

(All in the game) You might cry sometimes
(He loves you, he really, really, loves you)
Don't worry (All in the game)
You gonna laugh sometimes
(He loves you, he really, really, loves you)
'Cause it's all in the game (All in the game)
(He loves you, he really, really, loves you)
The game called love (All in the game)
(He loves you, he really, really, loves you)
So hold on, hold on to him good (All in the game)
(He loves you, he really, really, loves you)
Yes, he really loves you
(All in the game) Don't let him go
(He loves you, he really, really, loves you)
Don't ever let him go
'Cause he loves you so (All in the game)
(He loves you, he really, really, loves you)
Remember, it's all in the game (All in the game)
(He loves you, he really, really, loves you
All in the game
He loves you, he really, really, loves you
All in the game
He loves you, he really)
