No Game

It was never a game to me
I loved you because I loved you
I wasn't trying to win a prize
I wasn't trying to be on top
The things I did had no hidden motive
I was happy when you were happy
And sad when you were sad
And I truly loved you because I loved you
But it seems that wasn't the case for you
Each action was calculated
Your speech rehearsed
Your love for me limited
But you played the game alone
I loved to love
But your love was something more
