Seems I've 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, you're bound to lose   In the game of love, you pay your dues      Say that happiness cannot be measured   And a little pain can bring you all life's little pleasures   What a joke      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 weren't meant to be, at least not in this lifetime   But you gave me something to remember   I hear you still say, "Love yourself"      I had all my bets laid all on you   Set your stakes too high, you're bound to lose   In the game of love, I've paid my dues      Guess I'm waiting for my place in your sun   Wish I had the chance to know you and it wasn't stormy weather   What a shame, who's to blame?      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 weren't meant to be, at least not in this lifetime   But you gave me something to remember   I hear you still say, "Love yourself"
