Songtext von Part of The Game

All he wanted was everyone's eyes To watch as he held up his prize You'll never regret being kind When there's limited time A boy with a beautiful smile Who'd stay if you asked him to sit for a while Yellow in spirit and mind Don't leave him behind Just one costly mistake To be in the wrong place A sliver of paper with his handwritten name What trophy is worth this mountain of pain To be left to the earth was never a part of the game He longed for the dance with a girl Whose eyes reflect his golden curls She's left with a dip and a twirl and a whole in her world He dreamed of a cup in his hand Name being chanted from friends in the stands But sadly a wish is a plan that's just left to chance Just one costly mistake To be in the wrong place A sliver of paper with his handwritten name What trophy is worth this mountain of pain To be left to the earth was never a part of the game
