Love in the Universe
5/7/16 at Expressions 2016: Reasons to be Cheerful show in Austin

Wanted To Play

Love is a crazy game

And I so desperately
Wanted to play

I rolled the dice
I took a chance
And I lost
The game

And then I was asked
if I would like to play
again

Love is a crazy game

And I so desperately
Want to play
