My broken heart won't play gentle with my mind
So every night I find myself thinking of you
But I'm only playing games, I bet my heart against my brain 
And every time I lose

In all your songs you sang of leaving 
Yet my heart kept me believing 
That by some stroke of luck you might stay 
Somewhere our flame lingers on
But it no longer keeps me warm
For you are gone, love is so far away

Now your memory's black and white
How sentimental and how trite 
Of me to paint your picture this way
But in this dark and lonely room
No shade can quite match these blues
So I'll let all the colours fade to gray 

My broken heart won't play gentle with my mind
So every night I find myself thinking of you
But I'm only playing games, I bet my heart against my brain 
And every time I lose

So on this barstool here I sit
With all the candles dimly lit
While the jukebox plays all the wrong songs
And I wonder if these tunes 
Do the same thing to you
For I'm lost in my head before long

I know I told you I don't cry
But Honey you know that's a lie 
So in my dreams you're wiping my eyes
Then you'll ask me for this dance
And for another second chance
But then I wake only to find

My broken heart won't play gentle with my mind
So every night I find myself thinking of you
But I'm only playing games, I bet my heart against my brain 
And every time I lose
And every time I lose
