GAME OF BROKEN HEARTS, THE
Larkin / Clark / McMullen
as recorded by Patti Page
with Ray Ward's Modulators & The Jack Rael Septet
1949
Nobody wins in the game of broken hearts,
A game they play without rules!
Nobody wins in the game of broken hearts,
A game played only by fools!
But I played it smart, for I thought I was wise,
I laughed as we said our goodbyes,
But nobody wins in the game of broken hearts,
The winner's a loser who cries!
But I played it smart, for I thought I was wise,
I laughed as we said our goodbyes,
But nobody wins in the game of broken hearts,
The winner's a loser who cries!
