Lyrics

I know you never said
that you'd be staying round for a while
it's true you told me I should keep my options open and smile
but now you're gone
and I'll never know

You left your makeup
left your toothbrush
left no forward address
You took my shirt
you know, the one you gave to me
when we met
and now you're gone
and I'll never know

It's over now
forever wasn't to be
it's done now
it's over now
but I don't want to be free
and somehow
You played a beautiful game

If I'd have told you
how the future looked to me from the start
I wonder if it would have made you stay
or pushed us apart
but now you're gone
and I'll never know

I can't believe
that you felt nothing
when you looked in my face
I'd love to ask you
love to tell you
but you've left me no trace
and now you're gone
so I'll never know

It's over now
forever wasn't to be
it's done now
it's over now
but I don't want to be free
and somehow
You played a beautiful game

Where did you go
Where did you go

It's over now
It really wasn't to be
it's done now
It's over now
forever wasn't to be
it's done now
it's over now
but I don't want to be free
and somehow
You played a beautiful game

Where did you go
Where did you go

These guys know what music is about compared to lot of the stuff you hear on here, nice feel and Im loving this

simply beautiful!--great song--i wish you well!

Great song with a terrific vocal performance!! I like the lyrics and how the other instruments join in after a couple minutes.

cleverly crafted song. love the unforgettable hook melody. the phrase (concept) 'Beautiful Game' is outstanding and innovative. I like when the rhythm section enters and lifts the song out of the melancholy mood.

Really cute lyrics, and so true. Nice piano, arrangement. Overall a really good song.

I like this song a lot! The lyric is real and fresh, the music right in a good pop pocket.

very nice song, i like the piano and the guitar harmony.very cool.

I love your vocal tone! Give it a little more action sooner and you have a potential hit!

nice song has commercial feel to it.

Beautiful Electric Piano. Reminds me of a Silhouette waiting to explode into the forefront of someones heart. A Beautiful song all around. I love the synth chorus. All of the instrumentation is in the right places. Love this. Ready for the big time.

Love the opening. Nice feeling in your voice. Music built nicely
then descends properly. only thing is, I don't know if I should feel happy or sad?

Beautiful arrangement to an equally beautiful song, well written.

I still like this song. you must be a reviewing monster, this has come up twice for me in just a few weeks and I can't seem to get any of mine reviewed even though I'm sitting at around 60 review credits. Oh well. Got to hear your work again this morning and that sir, is a very good thing.
