It's been a long, long while
Since we've been strung out on love
And there's no mask of a smile
That can hide what we're thinking of
From your heart I hear
Only distant echoes of empty love
I guess this must be the matchpoint of our love
Early in the game when you broke me
Just like a serve
(Matchpoint matchpoint)
We shoulda walked off the court
But we both didn't have the nerve
(Matchpoint matchpoint)
So we volleyed a while with small talk
And a smile and as push comes to shove
I'd say this must be the matchpoint of our love
No one ever held me the way you did
No one could ever love me the way you did
How could love slip away from me?
In life's lonely game love too often
Can let you down
(Matchpoint matchpoint)
And tho' no one's to blame
Love is still the only game in town
(Matchpoint matchpoint)
When it's love's last play
You can only say
By the stars above
That this must be the matchpoint of our love
Da da da, da da da da da da (matchpoint matchpoint)
Da da da da da, da da da da da da (matchpoint matchpoint)
Da da da da da, da da da da da da (matchpoint matchpoint)
Da da da da da, da da da da da da (matchpoint matchpoint)
