Wicked Game
Chris Isaak · Live at the Fillmore [2010]
My world's on fire no one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I don't wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I don't wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
What a wicked game you play to make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do to let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say you never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do to make me dream of you
And I wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you
My world's on fire no one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I wanna fall in love(This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you
(this world is only gonna break your heart)
With you
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I,
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
Nobody loves no one
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I don't wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I don't wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
What a wicked game you play to make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do to let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say you never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do to make me dream of you
And I wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you
My world's on fire no one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I wanna fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I wanna fall in love(This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you
(this world is only gonna break your heart)
With you
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I,
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
Nobody loves no one
