[Verse 1] Seems Ive played the game for much too long I let people buy my love and I Never got to sing my songs for you I had all my bets laid all on you Set your stakes too high, youre bound to lose In the game of love you pay your dues Say that happiness can not be measured And a little pain can bring you all lifes little pleasures What a joke [Chorus] I was not your woman, I was not your friend But you gave me something to remember No other man said, Love yourself Nobody else can We werent meant to be At least not in this lifetime But you gave me something to remember I hear you still say, Love yourself [Verse 2] I had all my bets laid all on you Set your stakes too high, youre bound to lose In the game of love Ive paid my dues Guess Im waiting for my place in your sun Wish I had the chance to know you and it wasnt stormy weather What a shame, whos to blame? [Chorus] I was not your woman, I was not your friend But you gave me something to remember No other man said, Love yourself Nobody else can We werent meant to be At least not in this lifetime But you gave me something to remember I hear you still say, Love yourself
