The Tumble Down Game of Love

In your lying eyes, lays the wasteland
Beckoning to me to step inside
Rest my weary head
and let my heart decide
Yet, I have already lost
the game of love.
I have traversed your depths
Trekked many a weary mile
Swam the ocean of your soul
Hoping to reach your smile.
Now, spent and broken
I stop to rest
On the cold cliff of reason
Perhaps it is best for it to end
Yet I take breath and dive
Trusting that angel He send
To catch my fall
I got to be a lover
Should I tumble downward
and lay bleeding ever more
At least I took the chance
Isn’t that what love is for?
It’s only, only, only
my heart talking.
Hard hearted Alice never
tumbled down hole so well
as I tumbled into your life
With only my soul to sell
I gotta get you into my life
Into my life
