Holding All the Cards
Playing Solitaire of Love: Unveiling the Cards of Heartbreak
Lyrics
You're holdin' all the cards
You have the advantage or control in this situation.
But i'm keepin' up my guard
I am maintaining my defenses despite your position.
I'm not playin' those games with you
I refuse to engage in manipulative or deceptive interactions with you.
You want me but not today
You desire me, but I am not available at the moment.
When you just can't say
When you are unable to express your feelings.
You must attend to your frivolous affairs
You have other, less serious concerns to address.
I'm playin solitaire
I am playing a game of solitaire, symbolizing my independence.
I know that I play fair
I am confident that I am playing the game honestly.
And i'm keepin' my hearts in line
I am protecting my emotions and not letting them get entangled.
Oh it's a lonely game
This situation is isolating and emotionally challenging.
And I'm the only one to blame
I acknowledge that I am responsible for losing myself in this relationship.
For losin myself to you
I have surrendered too much of myself to you.
I had an ace of hearts
I once had a strong emotional connection (ace of hearts) with you.
You knew it from the start
You were aware of my deep feelings from the beginning.
I so foolishly gave to you
I foolishly gave my heart to you.
Well it suited you awhile
It suited you for a while, but now the situation has changed.
Now jokers are in style
Now, deceitful and unreliable behavior is fashionable.
And I'm left with a low handed dirty deal
I am left with a disadvantageous and unpleasant situation.
You been stringin me along
You have been leading me on with false hopes.
And I've held on far too long
I have clung to this illusion for too long.
To this imaginary thing
This emotional connection is not based on reality.
I'm callin out your bluff
I am challenging your deceptive behavior.
And here's my royal flush
I am revealing my strong and winning hand.
As I watch you spin so far away
I am observing you distancing yourself as I assert my strength.
