I'm looking for love in all that surrounds me.
Only to find that familiar face that has a pull on me.
I'm looking to find something new, but all I know is that I can't let go of you.
I try and i try to forget, but your memory is always here.
I thought I knew the secret to your love, now it's clear,
it's touching, torture, teaching, tainting me, making me cry.

I know that you have held me down, I need to put me feet back on the ground.
Will you let go and not be around? I don't know if I can take this pain.
Will you hear my song today? I must start a new love again.
Will you release me from these games, these games, these Foolish Mind Games.

I remember wasting all of those sleepless nights on you.
You treated me so badly, I thought it was all I deserved.
Starting our love over would be another endless fight.
Even though I loved you, I'm feeling like nothing just ain't right.

Set my thoughts free, your love no longer conquers me.
All of the cheating, beating, hating me, hurting me.

Repeat Chorus -- Adding

I know that you have held me down, I want to fly free with my feet on the ground.
Will you let go and not be around? I don't know if I can that pain.
I want you to hear my song today. I must start a new love again.
Will you release me from these games, these games, these Foolish Mind Games.
