Both editions are fairly robust. However, The J5 cover has the added Funky spice of James Jamerson-Arguably the finest bassist of all time!

Lyrics
The game of love
Is such a beautiful game
If you've got time, little girl
I?d like to explain
All the do?s and don?ts
All the wills and won?ts
So Lend an ear, darling dear
(Sweet darling dear)
Do be sincere
And true love will appear
Don?t be shy
Or love will pass you by
If you will
My heart you may steal
If you don?t
The game of love you lose alone
(Darling dear)
Do be sincere
And true love will appear
Don?t be shy
Or love will pass you by
If you will
My heart you may steal
If you don?t
The game of love you lose alone
(First)
First I?ll place my arms
So gently around you
(Then)
Then whisper darling I?m so glad I found you
Then your lips of wine
are softly touched with mine
A kiss we'll steal, darling dear
(Sweet darling)
Darling, darling dear, yeah
(Sweet darling dear)
Darling dear
(Sweet darling dear)
Darling dear
