I've seen you twice in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me fopr evry time
I'm getting more open hearted,
I was an impossible case
No one ever could reach me,
But I think I can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know

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
Tell me please 'cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child beginning to grow

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

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
Your smile and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Gotta feeling you gimme no choice
But it means a lot to me
So I wanna know

What's the name of the game
(Your smile and the sound in your voice)
Does it mean anything to you
(Got a feeling that 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
Tell me please 'cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child beginning to grow

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

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 in your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do
(Got a feeling that 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)
That it means a lot
