Lyrics End of the Game - Leo Sayer

Though he heard her clearly
She said it so sincerely
That's something
That he doesn't understand

Her words were choked and broken
She left him with a token
The note he is holding in his hand
(Don't let me down, don't let me down)

Is this the end of the game?
And will you put out the flame
And fly away, don't fly away

Now let's find out who's to blame
And start all over again
Don't fly away, don't fly away

Way across the city waiting on a taxi
Holding cases standing in the hall
Thinking "well if only"
She's feeling sad and lonely

Hoping 'gainst all hope
That he will call
Don't let me down
Don't let me down

Is this the end of the game?
And should I put out the flame
And fly away, and fly away
And if I walk out again
Is it true that the pain
Will fly away, fly away

Fly away, the taxi driver's talking
But she doesn't hear a single word he says
Fly away, the tears fall so easily
Keep falling 'til she climbs aboard the plane

And it's the end of the game
With only fortune to blame

Yes, it's the end of the game
But love was given in vain
Sail away, sail away
Just like the sunshine and rain

It's true that one day will pain
Will fly away, fly away, fly away
