The cuts they run so deep as to pierce my heart
And leave me wounded inside
And the cuts that scar my memory
Is the hardest ones to hide
I've tested the waters a time or two
Now I'd rather keep my feet on the shore
Cause love is just a foolish game
That I've played somewhere before
I'll let love slip by my fingertips
As my heart stands shattered and frail
When I run the dust will fly from my feet
As it covers up my trail
I've tested the waters a time or two
Now I'd rather keep my feet on the shore
Cause love is just a foolish game
That I've played somewhere before
You can run but you can't hide
From shattered dreams that take your heart for a ride
You get yourself together get on the right track
Just then you realize your heart ain't coming back
It ain't coming back
SOLO
The cuts they run so deep as to pierce my heart
And leave me wounded inside
And the cuts that scar my memory
Is the hardest ones to hide
I've tested the waters a time or two
Now I'd rather keep my feet on the shore
Cause love is just a foolish game
That I've played somewhere before
