[Verse 1] I've seen you twice, in a short time Only a day since we started It seems to me, for every time I'm getting more open-hearted [Pre-Chorus 1] Your smile, and the sound of your voice And the way you see through me Got a feeling you give me no choice And it means a lot to me So I wanna know... [Chorus 1] What's the name of the game? Does it mean anything to you? What's the name of the game? Can you feel it the way I do? [Post-Chorus] Tell me please, 'cause I have to know I'm a curious child, beginning to grow [Bridge 1] And you make me talk And you make me feel And you make me show What I'm trying to conceal If I trust in you, would you let me down? Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you? Could you feel the same way too? I wanna know... The name of the game [Verse 2] I have no friends, no one to see And I am never invited Now I am here, talking to you No wonder I get excited [Pre-Chorus 2] Your smile, and the sound of your voice And the way you see through me Got a feeling, you give me no choice And it means a lot to me So I wanna know... [Chorus] What's the name of the game? (your smile and the sound of your voice) Does it mean anything to you? (Got a feeling you give me no choice) (But it means a lot) What's the name of the game? (I was an impossible case) Can you feel it the way I do? [Post-Chorus] Tell me please, 'cause I have to know I'm a curious child, beginning to grow [Bridge 2] And you make me talk And you make me feel And you make me show What I'm trying to conceal If I trust in you, would you let me down? Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you? Could you feel the same way too? I wanna know... Oh yes I wanna know... [Chorus] The name of the game (I was an impossible case) Does it mean anything to you? (But I think I can see in your face) (That it means a lot) What's the name of the game? (Your smile and the sound of your voice) Can you feel it the way I do? (Got a feeling you give me no choice) (But it means a lot) What's the name of the game? (I was an impossible case) Does it mean anything to you? (But I think I can see in your face) (And it means a lot)
