Lyrics
Your happy song requests make me smile
The slightest touch provides the spiral
Sitting by the fire reading the flames
Loving one another subdues the pain
And tonight I realized the game
Is only played when you think it's a game
Kick back your feet and stay a while
Lay next to me so I can dial
Numbers that sequence your style
Barely explain your persistent denial
And tonight I realized the game
Is only played when you think it's a game
I can't complain I go along
I feel the change long after you've gone
You have to know I can't be everything
That your mind is creating
