[Verse 1]
Sunshine feels like sugar down in Greenwich
I used to lay out words like I meant it
Back when I was seventeen
And anyone meant everything
I almost took all my love and spent it

[Chorus]
Now I play the game without the gamble
I won the war although I've lost some battles
Sweat on skin and wool on bone
I give you time to be alone
'Cause I know I can be a lot to handle
To handle

[Verse 2]
I used to kiss like it was all that I could do
I'd only chase the lover slipping out of view
Back when I was seventeen
I recall thе weight of things
I'd do it all again to get to you

[Chorus]
Now I play the gamе without the gamble
I won the war although I've lost some battles
Sweat on skin and wool on bone
I give you time to be alone
'Cause I know I can be a lot to handle
[Bridge]
I made mistakes and I'd make 'em again
And I've lost lovers and I've lost friends
I fight with my past, but I still let it in
The more you get hurt, the faster you mend
Feel like the trouble has led to you
So I love the trouble and the things it's brewed
What is love without something to lose?
What is love without something to lose?

[Chorus]
Now I play the game without the gamble
I won the war although I've lost some battles
Sweat on skin and wool on bone
I give you time to be alone
'Cause I know I can be a lot to handle
To handle

[Outro]
Sunshine feels like sugar down in Greenwich
I'll give you my trust and you can mend it
