Verse 1

I've got troubles to my left troubles to my right

They stick around for days I can't solve them overnight
There seems to be a problem that may never have an answer
It's called love and for some it's here forever


Chorus


Love can be so hard and cruel
So make this your golden rule
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose

But don't play the part of the fool

Verse 2


Love has been around as long as life itself
It's just a game we play and we can't play ourselves

So all I have to say don't let it get you down
There's never been an answer so don't expect one now


Chorus

Love can be so hard and cruel

So make this your golden rule
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose
But don't play the part of the fool

Verse 3

So now you know about this thing called love

Your troubles can be solved you just have to give it time
When everything is fine love shows it's ugly head
Don't play this game stay away instead

Chorus

Love can be so hard and cruel

So make this your golden rule
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose
But don't play the part of the fool
