[Verse 1]
Now I'll admit that you've been playing with my heart
Just like it was a toy
And I've been playing along
And letting you treat me wrong
Because it seems to give you joy

[Chorus]
Are you sure love is the name of this game?
Are you sure love is the name of this game?

[Verse 2]
For days on end, you just stay away
Waiting for my heart to weaken
It's more like we're playing hide and seek
And I'm the one who's always seeking

[Chorus]
Are you sure love is the name of this game?
Are you sure love, oh love is the name of this game?

[Bridge]
Well, if everything's right, and uptight
How come the heartaches keep repeating?
With every beat my heart is beating
Now can it be that you've been cheating
Cheating on me? Yeah
[Instrumental Break]
[Harmonica Solo]

[Verse 3]
Now how come you keep on telling me lies
Filling my life with sorrow
Don't know what to expect from your affection
It's here today and gone tomorrow

[Outro]
Are you sure love is the name of this game?
I wanna know
Are you sure love, love, love, love is the name of this game?
Are you sure L-O-V-E, love is the name of this game?
Tell me are you sure love, oh love is the name of this game?
