If you've never been hurt
Then you've never been in love before
If you've never felt pain
Then you've never played the game
The game of love

Two people in two places
Their hearts are being wasted
'Cause each is afraid to try
Now it's time to take some chances
To find out what romance is
All you have to do
Is tell the one you need
How much "I really love you", mmm...

If you've never been hurt
Then you've never been in love before
If you've never felt pain
Then you've never played the game
The game of love, mm-hmm

But you keep hesitating
Afraid hearts will start breaking
And you'll be left alone, I understand
You will never find out
Why your mind has its doubts
And the world of love calls you
To fall into the arms
Of someone who really loves you
Someone that you can love
And give all of your love to
When two hearts join as one
That's what the game of love can do, baby
Hey...
But if you've never been hurt
Don't you know that you've never
Never been in love, oh, no
In love before
If you've never, never felt the pain
Then you've never
You've never played the game
The game of love

Don't be afraid, baby
You gotta let it go
Reach across to me
And you gotta let your feelings show...
