Analysis of Game Over
Staring at you pie-eyed
Your untamed eyes are unseen.
I have to leave you tonight
And our mate: bottle of gin.
All the words said and unsaid
Morrows that we've never seen.
Forgetting all memories?
You and me? Aye, we are in.
The sunny days are over
And the gray shades we’ve been.
Let's be unmoved about love
The only way we both win.
