Sweetheart June
Love's Gamble: Embracing Madness in Sweetheart June
Lyrics
Didn't wanna feel this way like I'm down to the wire
Expressing reluctance or unease, feeling pressured or stressed like being close to a deadline.
Hanging on to every word you say above a ring of fire
Hanging onto every word with intensity, facing a challenging or risky situation.
Baby, when you get so close and there's nowhere to hide
Feeling vulnerable when someone gets emotionally close, with no escape from the emotions.
I'll tear the words right from the page so you can lock them deep inside
Willing to express emotions and make them lasting, wanting the other person to internalize them.
Baby it's been lonely waiting on a woman like you
Expressing loneliness and anticipation while waiting for a specific person.

Maybe there's no way out of these games
Suggesting challenges or difficulties in the relationship, questioning if there's a way to overcome them.
You could be the queen hearts, I could be the king of spades
