You're Playing Cards

These are lyrics to my song


When she’s drinking you’re playing cards, and I’m somewhere in between. 

When I dance, you’re not dancing and the card games stop, and the drinking moves on. 

So where’s your smile and laugh now? 

Now you realize you forgot to listen and life’s already moved on, and you’re the one with the empty bottle, and the torn cards, and I with the heart of stone. 

It was inevitable, 

it was inevitable but did you see it coming? 

When she’s drinking you’re playing cards, and I’m somewhere in between. 

Did you realize you chose your poison, like I did, or did you think I put it in your hand? With this love, found in the dance, this heart of stone will melt. 

So where’s your smile and laugh now? 

Now you realize you forgot to listen and life’s already moved on, and you’re the one with the empty bottle, and the torn cards, and I with the heart of stone.
