The Name Of The Game lyrics

A moth to a flame, that's the way that it plays Since the world began A queen on a throne or the emperor of Rome With a sleight of hand And so it begins, both in virtue and sin There's no wrong or right Red chasing blue, painting blood on the Moon On a summer night The name of the game's still the same Win or lose, either up or down Play, baby, play one more game Won't you stay for another round? Dress up to pretend, the charade never ends Here we go again In the name of the game, there's no shame There's no blame when you play to win Steal a dance Leap of faith Take a chance while you're waiting Roll the dice Paradise, once or twice Are you playing? Stakes are high Double down one more time For a heartache When you play the game Steal a dance Leap of faith Take a chance while you're waiting Roll the dice Paradise, once or twice Are you playing? Stakes are high Double down one more time For a heartache When you play the game The name of the game's still the same Win or lose, either up or down Play, baby, play one more game Won't you stay for another round? Dress up to pretend, the charade never ends Here we go again In the name of the game, there's no shame There's no blame when you play to win The name of the game's still the same Win or lose, either up or down Play, baby, play one more game Won't you stay for another round? Dress up to pretend, the charade never ends Here we go again In the name of the game, there's no shame There's no blame when you play to win
