It rained again today
I would of called to say
One game of one on one
You win and I’m done
I’ll leave
You won
The game and my heart
But you win
We part
I’ll just keep my mouth shut
And close the door
Forget all we were before
What we might of been
I guess I’ll stop calling you my best friend
Scroll past as your new life begins
With one game it did all end
I can act and play pretend
Eventually my heart will mend
Or Maybe I'll never love again
That is how life goes
The future is never known
Even though my heart shows
I miss the mark
Slam dunk in my face
Late night in the park
I’ll retreat
Play my part
A specter of the past
You’re the first
But not the last
The one that got passed
But I got that steady job
Down at the bank
Not talking shots
Deposit slips, withdrawals, transactions
Additions
Subtractions
The way my heart feels
Not sure I really want it to heal
Regrettably I pulled out of that pro deal
Could of had it all
Could of still had the fire to ball
Cause I lost that game we played
Was it love?
Or basketball?
Either way
It’s just me today
It’s raining and the skies are grey
And I remember how it started
On a day just like today
But that was long ago
And so was the ending
But if you ask to play
Double or nothing
I'll be there
With my heart to share
Love and basketball is in the air
