Game, Set and Match

6/6/2025

Jean-Paul VERNERET

 

Verse 1

We built ourselves endless summer skies

Promises carved in the morning light

Then silence slowly started to rise

And all our laughter faded out of sight

 

Bridge

Maybe one day, in a café by chance

We’ll share a smile, no need to recount

The points we lost, the faults of the past

The “I love you” words stayed locked backstage

And promises dissolved in the haze

 

Chorus

Game, set and match, the final call

The storm takes all our memories fall

No winner here, no need for revenge

Just two roads slowly drifting at the

edge

No backward glance to that last Sunday

The heart learns what it means to stay

Game, set and match, no anger, no sound

Just thanks for the light we once found

 

Verse 2

We thought we knew each false rebound

The hidden wounds beneath our reasons

But time has changed the rules we found

Our rackets shook before the seasons

 

Bridge

Maybe one day, in a café by chance

We’ll share a smile, no need to recount

The points we lost, the faults of the past

The “I love you” words stayed locked backstage

And promises dissolved in the haze

 

Chorus

Game, set and match, the final call

The storm takes all our memories fall

No winner here, no need for revenge

Just two roads slowly drifting at the edge

No backward glance to that last Sunday

The heart learns what it means to stay

Game, set and match, no anger, no sound

Just thanks for the light we once found

 

Verse 3

Game, set and match, the game is done

You take with you all I thought I’d won

No victor here beneath the night

Just two lost stories losing the fight

 

Bridge

Maybe one day, in a café by chance

We’ll share a smile, no need to recount

The points we lost, the faults of the past

The “I love you” words stayed locked backstage

And promises dissolved in the haze

 

Chorus

Game, set and match, the final call

The storm takes all our memories fall

No winner here, no need for revenge

Just two roads slowly drifting at the edge

No backward glance to that last Sunday

The heart learns what it means to stay

Game, set and match, no anger, no sound

Just thanks for the light we once found
