Adele's New track 'Love Is A Game Demonstrates She's not finished with affection yet. Not all of Adele's 30 album is about divorce; there are melodies about love in there as well. Take, for instance, "Love Is a Game," the general, instrumental song she appeared during the Adele One Night Only transmission Sunday night.
However, the "Love Is A Game" lyrics inform us concerning the aggravation and dissatisfaction she's suffered for love, the artist closes on a fairly confident note: "You know I’m gonna do it again," she sings.
Adele appeared "Love Is A Game" live during her CBS' television special "Adele: One Night Only" held at the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles on the fourteenth of November, 2021.
Here is every refrain of "Love Is A Game" lyrics so you can ring in.
Love Is A Game Lyrics - Adele
[Verse 1]
All your expectations of my love are impossible
Surely, you know that I'm not easy to hold
It's so sad how incapable of learning to grow I am
My heart speaks in puzzle and codes
I've been trying my whole life to solve
God only knows how I've cried
I can't take another defeat
A next time would be the ending of me
Now that I see
[Chorus]
That love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling (Fooling), what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
To self-inflict that pain
Love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling again (Fooling), what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
To self-inflict that pain
[Verse 2]
How unbelievable (Unbelievable)
Of me to fall for the lies that I tell (Lies I tell)
The dream that I sell (Dream I sell)
When heartache, it's inevitable (It's inevitable)
But I'm no good at doing it well
Not that I care (I don't care)
Why should anything about it be fair?
[Chorus]
When love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling (Fooling), what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
To self-inflict that pain
Love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling again (Fooling), what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
To self-inflict that pain
[Bridge]
No amount of love
Can keep me satisfied (Satisfied, satisfied)
I can't keep up (Can't keep up, can't keep up)
When I keep changing my mind (Change my mind, change my mind)
The feelings flood me to the heights of no compromise
[Chorus]
Love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling (Fooling), what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
To self-inflict that pain
Love is a game for fools to play
And I ain't fooling (Fooling), what a cruel thing (Cruel thing)
To self-inflict that pain
[Outro]
Oh, you know I'd do it all again
I love it now like I loved it then
I'm a fool for them
You know I'm, you know I'm gonna do it, oh
I'll do it all again like I did then

"In Adele's cover story interviews for the November 2021 issues of Vogue UK and the Vogue US, questioners Giles Hattersley and Abby Aguirre previewed this last track from Adele's 30 album. Hattersley detailed:
She needs to play me a last tune, the seven-minute creation that closes the new album. It's a knockout. A string-swirling, Wreath conjuring, energetic, unconventional, fainting delight, loaded with world-fatigued finish of-the-show reflection, and including a vocal for the ages. She observes joyfully as I bar my direction through paying attention to it. Breakfast at Tiffany's was playing on the TV in the studio when she recorded it, and she says it's the end song the film ought to have had. But at the same time it's the coda on her new section.
Aguirre futher detailed "the game plan is eccentric and mass of-sound retro, brimming with strings and vibrato and midcentury sentiment, yet the verses convey a rebellious wind" and cited Adele as clarifying:
As [Breakfast at Tiffany's] got done, we were attempting to work out how to end the tune, and I said, 'We ought to compose maybe we were composing the soundtrack—you know, toward the finish of the film, where it works out.'"
In an extensive meeting, Oprah Winfrey asked Adele if she has really improved at the "game of love" presently. (She separated from her better half Simon Konecki in 2019 and is presently in a glad new relationship with sports specialist Rich Paul.)
"I suspect as much, since I don't deal with it like a game any longer," Adele clarified. "That thing where, 'You will hurt me so I will hurt you first,' I’m not like that anymore.”"
