There is a game of love Drums: John “JR” Robinson A little time with you is all that I get
There is a game of love Percussion: Quinn That’s all we need because it’s all we can take
This is a game of love
This is a game of love There are so many things One thing I never see the same when your ‘round
And it was you
that I don’t understand I don’t believe in him - his lips on ground
And it was you There’s a world within me I wanna take you to that place in the “Roche”
The one that would be breaking my heart that I cannot explain But no one gives us any time anymore
When you decided to walk away Many rooms to explore
When you decided to walk away but the doors look the same He ask me once if I’d look in on his dog
I am lost I can’t even remember my name You made an offer for it then you ran off
The one that would be breaking my heart I got this picture of us kids in my head
When you decided to walk away I’ve been for sometime And all I hear is the last thing that you said
When you decided to walk away Looking for someone
I need to know now ‘I listened to your problems
There is a game of love Please tell me who I am
There is a game of love Now listen to mine’
This is a game of love I didn’t want to anymore
This is a game of love There are so many things
that I don’t understand
And we will never be alone again
’Cause it doesn’t happen every day

Kinda counted on you being a friend N. Rodgers, Ph. Williams) Choir & Orchestra (see booklet for details)
Can I give it up or give it away Vocals: Pharrell Williams & Daft Punk
Guitar: Nile Rodgers Touch
Now I thought about what I wanna say Bass: Nathan East I remember touch
Drums: John “JR” Robinson Pictures came with touch
But I never really know where to go
So I chained myself to a friend A painter in my mind
I know you don’t get a chance to take a break this often Tell me what you see
’Cause I know it unlocks like a door I know your life is speeding and it isn’t stopping
Here take my shirt and just go ahead A tourist in a dream
It didn’t matter what they wanted to see and wipe up all the
He thought he saw someone that looked just like me A visitor it seems
Sweat! Sweat! Sweat! A half forgotten song
The summer memory that just never dies
We worked too long and hard to give it no time Where do I belong
Lose yourself to dance Tell me what you see
Lose yourself to dance I need something more
He sees right through me it’s so easy with lies Lose yourself to dance
Cracks in the road that I would try and disguise Lose yourself to dance
He runs his scissor at the seem in the wall Kiss
He cannot break it down or else he would fall Suddenly alive
Come on, come on, come on, come on Happiness arrive
Come on, come on, come on, come on Hunger like a storm
1000 lonely stars, hiding in the cold
Take it, I don’t want to sing anymore How do I begin
Lose yourself to dance A room within a room
Lose yourself to dance A door behind a door
‘I listened to your problems Lose yourself to dance
Now listen to mine’ Touch, where do you lead
Lose yourself to dance I need something more
I didn’t want to anymore
Tell me what you see
Everybody’s dancing on the floor I need something more
And we will never be alone again Getting ready for more
‘Cause it doesn’t happen every day
Kinda counted on you being a friend If love is the answer you’re home
Everybody on the floor Hold on
Can I give it up or give it away Everybody on the floor If love is the answer you’re home
Now I thought about what I wanna say Hold on
Lose yourself to dance If love is the answer you’re home
But I never really know where to go Lose yourself to dance
So I chained myself to a friend Lose yourself to dance
‘Cause I know it unlocks like a door... Touch
Lose yourself to dance Sweet touch
