Knowing The Rules Of This Love Game...

i could have been true
and i could have loved you
much truer than true,

but when i first met love
it bluffed me

i never had it so true
it only played a game on me

i learned from love first
and now it must not blame me

i only have to return
what was first given to me

i am playing this game
and hurting is not a word to say

you know the rules
and there is no one to blame
