It's a Game

IT'S GAME, THAT THEY PLAY

SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM

TABI'UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM

WHAT SHAME, WHAT THEY SAY

SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM

TABI'UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM

 

WHERE ARE YOU IN MY DREAMS? 
YOU FEEL SO CLOSE BUT SO FAR
WHEN ALL I WANT IS TO SEE
YOUR FACE IN FRONT OF ME

YOU MAKE ME CHASE AROUND
SHADOWS IN THE MOONLIGHT
ONLY FOR THE SUNRISE
TO OPEN MY EYES

MAKES ME JUMP TO MY FEET
WALK AROUND THE CITY STREETS
HOPING THAT I’LL FIND YOU
BY MY SIDE.

THEN I FEEL YOUR SUNLIGHT
BEAUTIFUL AND SO BRIGHT
FEELING I'M IN YOUR ARMS
FOR WHILE

HOURS PASS LIKE BREEZE
MOVING THROUGH THE PALM TREES
HAND IN HAND YOU AND ME
WITH YOUR SMILE

 

SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM

TABI'UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM

WHAT SHAME, WHAT THEY SAY

SHATAMUHU LAMMA JAHILUH
THEY INSULTED HIM WHEN THEY DIDN’T KNOW HIM

TABI'UHU LAMMA ARAFU HUDAH
THEY BECAME HIS FOLLOWERS WHEN THEY TRULY KNEW HIM

I NEED YOU IN MY LIFE LIKE THE AIR WITH WHICH I BREATHE

 

SO LET THEM SAY WHAT THEY WANT TO SAY
IT'S THE SAME GAME THEY ALWAYS PLAY
I'LL TURN MY EARS THE OTHER WAY,
IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE EITHER WAY
IT'S GAME THEY'RE ALWAYS GOING TO PLAY
LET THEM SAY WHAT THEY WANT TO SAY

IT'S GAME 
IT'S GAME
IT'S GAME
THEY'RE ALWAYS GOING TO PLAY
