I call you up, you pick up

You call my bluff, on the cards of love

You hold too close your hands to your chest

I can't read your eyes, but I confess

It's lonely far from you

Even when you're right by me

It's only why I wait for you, take my hand



Why do I beg like a child for your candy?

Why do I come after you like I do I love you

Whatever you are I swear

You'll be my angel



I play my cards best I can

But I lose my luck when you're not here

My darling heart, won't you please give in

I may be strong but I want you back again

When you're not here it's hard to pretend

It's all alright again

When you're not here love it's hard to pretend

It's all alright...still



Why do I beg like a child for your candy?

Why do I come after you like I do I love you

Whatever you are I swear

You'll be my angel



Watch the deck, count your cards

Makes no sense, that I'm always losing

When you're gone



Why do I beg like a child for your candy?

Why do I come after you like I do I love you

Whatever you are I swear

You'll be my angel



When you're gone
