Card Games

Simmer down

Try to stay awhile

Keep coming up for air

You're drowning in your own heart

Your fingers round my throat

And you're turning up your nose

But I'm not complaining no I'm not

Baby tell

Where has your lover gone

He's up and left you playin' card games in Las Vegas

He's trying to catch his flight

While I'm staying for the night

But he's not complaining no he's not

Baby

This is compliments for maybe leaving love

Karma says it never ends

And you won't forget this you will not

Please calm down

Pour yourself a drink

You know word gets around

And gossip always repeats

You heard those songs I sang

And you drank and drank and drank

But I'm not complaining no I'm not

Malice words

Pour forth from your black tongue

You cursed my name the day you met me singin' so long

I'm calling out your bluff

Keep opinions to myself

So you're not complaining no you're not

Maybe

This is consequence

For maybe leaving love

Karma said

It never ends

And you won't forget this you will not

Karma says it never ends

And you won't forget this you will not
