lyrics

She had a half-grin
She reeled me right in
With a love song she said
she can't sing alone
So we locked eyes
We sang our parts right
And, baby, then I said goodbye to control

But I can't read her ways and I'm frustrated
At the way she fans the flames that she created

I'm on my knees sayin' please
show your cards to me
But this poker queen's
got me all mixed up in everything
If I'm what you need
tell me now or baby let me be
'Cause I'm finished here
not that you care my dear
But just so you know

See I could play cool
Go by the game rules
But that's exhausting love
And it ain't my game to play
But babe, you hit me
With every pretty little look you give
See I hold them close so if it's nothing
please stop today

I played my last hand
I took her chips and ran
And saved her next from a life of guessing
You're welcome very much
Save your school boy crush
Run while you can
