Lyrics

By the jukebox she stands slowly swaying
Humming softly the tune that it's playing
So aware of the stares that surround her
In her way she is playing the game

See him there drinking beer in the corner
Eyes' half closed you suppose he's a loner
'cos his gaze mearly strays all around her
In his way he is playing the game

Love is a game that is so worth the winning
Ain't it a shame so few really try
Rules are the same as with two dice a'spinning
Winners can claim losers remain playing the game

There's a room full of people between them
But you'd swear neither of them has seen 'em
As they plan their spontaneous meeting
And the way they'll keep playing the game

He's the first one to move tired of waiting
Quickly closes the gap separating
But she turns so he must walk around her
She's an old hand at playing the game

But he's cunning and moves like an old fox
He walks by her right up to the jukebox
Take's his time while he makes his selection
Something smooth 'cos he's playing the game

Love is a game etc

Then he turns their eyes meet and hold steady
Nothing's said but they both know they're ready
He holds out both his hands and she takes them
They're both glad to be playing the game

Love is a game etc
