ABBA - The Name of the Game lyrics

[ABBA - The Name of the Game lyrics]

I've seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, for every time
I'm getting more open hearted

I was an impossible case
No one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know

What's the name of the game?
Does it mean anything to you?
What's the name of the game?
Can you feel it the way I do?

Tell me, please, 'cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child beginning to grow

And you make me talk (Doo doo, doo doo)
And you make me feel (Doo doo, doo doo)
And you make me show (Doo doo, doo doo)
What I'm trying to conceal
(Doo doo, doo doo)
If I trust in you (Doo doo, doo doo)
Would you let me down? (Doo doo, doo doo)
Would you laugh at me (Doo doo, doo doo)
If I said I care for you? (Ah ah)
Could you feel the same way too, I wanna know
The name of the game

I have no friends, no one to see
And I am never invited
Now I am here, talking to you
No wonder I get excited

Your smile, and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling, you give me no choice
But it means a lot to me so I wanna know

What's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Does it mean anything to you?
(Got a feeling you give me no choice
But it means a lot)
What's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do?

Tell me, please, 'cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child beginning to grow

And you make me talk (Doo doo, doo doo)
And you make me feel (Doo doo, doo doo)
And you make me show (Doo doo, doo doo)
What I'm trying to conceal
(Doo doo, doo doo)
If I trust in you (Doo doo, doo doo)
Would you let me down? (Doo doo, doo doo)
Would you laugh at me (Doo doo, doo doo)
If I said I care for you? (Ah ah)
Could you feel the same way too, I wanna know
Oh, yes, I wanna know

The name of the game
(I was an impossible case)
Does it mean anything to you?
(But I think I can see in your
Face that it means a lot)
What's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do?
(Got a feeling you give me no choice
But it means a lot)

The name of the game
(I was an impossible case)
Does it mean anything to you?
(But I think I can see in your
Face that it means a lot)
What's the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it
