Game of Love

Is it always going to be like this?
I step up to the plate, ready to swing, but afraid I'll miss
is this how the game of love goes?
I hope the fear in my eyes doesn't show.

It's all new to me, a new game
and hopefully I will feel no shame,
Can I bring myself to play,
or will I turn and run away?

I guess we'll find out as I approach you,
you're the guy I want, do you want to play too?
So please just step up to the plate,
before the chance is over and you're too late.

Is this how it works? I'm new at this ,
At the plate,getting ready to swing, and still afraid I'll miss,
Is this how the game of love goes?
I am still hoping the fear in my eyes doesn't show.

So there you stand,
with bat in hand,
you're here for me,
and you'll be happy, you'll soon see.

So is this how it starts? now it's you and I,
and the score is 1-1, it's a tie.
Next guy to hit wins me, but I hope its you,
If not I won't be happy with him, it's true.

It's going to be like this,
You're at the plate, you swing, and you are unafraid to miss.
This is how it's supposed to go,
and the love in my eyes, well it shows.

You won! I'm here cheering you on.
as the people parade across the lawn,
then you lean in and we kiss,
as I thank God you hit the ball and didn't miss.
