## Lyrics
[verse]
He's got a smile that lights the room up,
He's got a line for every girl,
He talks so sweet you'd think he means it,
He hands out promises like pearls.
I used to think that I was special,
I used to think his eyes were true,
But I found out the hardest way there
That I'm just one of quite a few.

[chorus]
Everybody plays the game sometime,
Everybody falls for a pretty rhyme,
You laugh it off and act so cool,
But deep down every heart's a fool
For somebody who don't play by the rules.

[verse]
My girlfriends warned me, "Watch that fella,"
I laughed and said I knew the score,
Now I'm the one out in the rain here,
Wondering what love's even for.
But I won't cry into my pillow,
I'll dust it off and stand up tall,
'Cause wisdom's just a lesson learning
That love can trip up one and all.

[chorus]
Everybody plays the game sometime,
Everybody falls for a pretty rhyme,
You laugh it off and act so cool,
But deep down every heart's a fool
For somebody who don't play by the rules.

[bridge]
So here's to every heart that's ever
Believed a story sweet and slow,
We're not the only ones who never
Saw the truth until it's time to go.

[chorus]
Everybody plays the game sometime,
Everybody falls for a pretty rhyme,
You laugh it off and act so cool,
But deep down every heart's a fool
For somebody who don't play by the rules.
