Skipjack

(Verse 1: Cathy)
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

(Verse 2: Cathy, Amelia)
Look in the glass (look, can't you see me?)
Reflections of me (acting cool, when)
My cards lade bare on the table to see
(Really I'm scared, 'cause this game's unfair)

My cheating eyes are all that you know
(You could cheat me if you wanted to
I could not think any worse of you)
Now you're the banker, it's your turn to go
(Each way I lose a heart, but somehow I lost the art
Of playing these stupid games, you're gonna win again and)

(Chorus)
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

(Verse 3: Cathy)
Not much to lose, when you've lost it all
But why must you take it so hard when you fall

(Verse 4: Cathy, Amelia)
I'll pay again (I tried to delay)
At your asking price (to put off the day)
I must accept it but your look's like ice
(It comes clear you don't need me here)

Dragged through the mill numb to it all
(I know it is time for me to leave
Turn my worst fears into certainty)
Just when I thought it was my turn to call
(But I can't bring myself to leave for somewhere else
Without you forcing me which you won't do which means that)

(Chorus)
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

(Instrumental)
