When I met you, oh You know at first you had me so confused I used to lay awake at night Just copin' with the feelings I so long refused Well I surrendered my love I saw you turn your heart stone cold to ice, darlin' I put my heart on the line for you Oh I did, I put my heart on the line, yeah First you take me to the highest ground Then you keep me hanging like some foolish clown CHORUS: It's such a fools' game, yeah It's such a fools' game I keep playing such a fools' game, yeah(forever) I keep on playin', keep on playin' this fools' game Yeah, this fools' game I can't take another sleepless night It's time to light the fire down inside of you I don't mind, I have the sun on my back To get a feeling that you never knew You never knew Got the secret in the palm of your hands Will you keep it woman, will you break this man CHORUS: Girl I know, you're playin' full time But it may be too late, when you make up your mind You keep me in this fools' game Forever in your fools' game You got me caught up in this fools' game Such a fools' game, oh no, a fools' game How long will you keep me in this fools' game
