I'm not gonna play the same game
Don't wanna play any game at all
So tell me your number's the same
I won't wait three days to call.
I never much cared for complications.
I ain't entertained by dramatizations.
I'd rather our heart-to-heart conversations.
Like the way we once became.
But not if we're playin' the same game
I don't need to play the whole field
I don't wanna keep playin' around
Just think of the time that we've lost
And didn't even make it off the ground
I don't give a damn where the upper hand is
I just wanna know what the show you've got planned is
So if I come around where the ground you stand is
Can we lay aside the blame?
And we can put the rest to shame
But not if we're playing' the same game
Ooh
Enough with a the playin'
There's things that need a-sayin'
Foundation needs a-layin'
Ooh
It's time we started doin'
To see this thing a-through n'
To start again anew n'
Ooh-oh
A simple sweet emotion
The difference of devotion
I got just for you
Ooh
It's love and all the laughter
The Happy Everafter
That you always knew
[See, I want it too]
I'm not gonna play the same game
I'm aiming for "Always be true"
You think think you might want a new name?
I happen to have one for you
And I'll spend my days thinking' of ways I can adore you
And gettin' to know, watchin' you grow, I can assure you
If you'll be so kind, I wouldn't mind just to explore you
And you're welcome to do the same
But not if we're playing' the same game
Not if we're playing' the same game
Yeah not if we play this same game...
Maybe one of these days I'll actually finish what I start...

Digital Divide
I know exactly how we got here.
Begins so powerful and pure.
But passing time does no great favors.
Makes even strong hearts not-so-sure.
And girl your love has tasted sweetest
through all these brilliant, savored sips.
But I have never even heard my name
be spoken on your lips.
And if I put myself in your shoes
[and if you tried on my shoes, too]
You know, we'd probably say the same damn things
from different points of view.
See, there's two sides to every story,
and there are two that hold a pen.
But if we can't be clear what happens here
It just spells: "Heartache, once again."
Now it's the simplest communication
that will forever turn the key.
Takes no more modern innovation.
Just need you on the same page as me.
[I just wanna findout how happy we can be.]
So, I'll pack all my non-belongings
and let this conscience be my guide.
Head off in search of my life's meaning
across our Digital Divide.
