Skipjack |
I keep my hand hidden from view |
A poker face is what’s called for with you |
I hold my cards tight to my chest |
Just one misjudged look, and you’ll guess the rest |
(Cathy's part:) |
Look in the glass, reflections of me |
My cards lade bare on the table to see |
(Amelia's part:) |
(Look, can’t you see me? Acting cool, when |
Really I’m scared, that this game’s unfair) |
(Cathy's part:) |
My cheating eyes are all that you know |
Now you’re the banker, it’s your turn to go |
(Amelia's part:) |
You could cheat me if you wanted to |
I could not think any worse of you |
Each way I lose a heart but somehow I lost the art |
Of playing these stupid games, you’re gonna win again and |
I don’t know what to do |
I’ve gambled everything but you still ask for more |
I can’t afford not to give |
Just one more chance, If only for the past |
I know it’s my last now |
Not much to lose, when you’ve lost it all |
But why must you take it so hard when you fall |
(Cathy's part:) |
I’ll pay again at your asking price |
I must accept it, but your look’s like ice |
(Amelia's part:) |
I’ve tried to delay to put off the day |
It comes clear you don’t need me here |
(Cathy's part:) |
Dragged through the mill numb to it all |
Just when I thought it was my turn to call |
(Amelia's part:) |
I know it is time for me to leave |
Turn my worst fears into certainty |
But I can’t bring myself to leave for somewhere else |
Without you forcing me which you won’t do which means that |
