Lyrics
0:17I keep my hand hidden from view
0:24A poker face is what's called for with you
0:33I hold my cards tight to my chest
0:39Just one misjudged look and you'll guess the rest
0:43Cathy's part
0:44Look in the glass reflections of me
0:46My cards lade bare on the table to see
0:49Amelia's part
0:49Look can't you see me Acting cool when
0:52Really I'm scared that this game's unfair
0:55Cathy's part
0:56My cheating eyes are all that you know
0:58Now you're the banker it's your turn to go
1:02Amelia's part
1:03You could cheat me if you wanted to
1:06I could not think any worse of you
1:10Each way I lose a heart but somehow I lost the art
1:14Of playing these stupid games you're gonna win again and
1:18I don't know what to do
1:21I've gambled everything but you still ask for more
1:25I can't afford not to give
1:29Just one more chance If only for the past
1:32I know it's my last now
1:44Not much to lose when you've lost it all
1:50But why must you take it so hard when you fall
1:57Cathy's part
1:59I'll pay again at your asking price
2:02I must accept it but your look's like ice
2:06Amelia's part
2:07I've tried to delay to put off the day
2:13It comes clear you don't need me here
2:17Cathy's part
2:18Dragged through the mill numb to it all
2:21Just when I thought it was my turn to call
2:25Amelia's part
2:26I know it is time for me to leave
2:29Turn my worst fears into certainty
2:33But I can't bring myself to leave for somewhere else
2:58Without you forcing me which you won't do which means that
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 Cathy's part Look in the glass reflections of me My cards lade bare on the table to see Amelia's part Look can't you see me Acting cool when Really I'm scared that this game's unfair Cathy's part My cheating eyes are all that you know Now you're the banker it's your turn to go Amelia's part You could cheat me if you wanted to I could not think any worse of you Each way I lose a heart but somehow I lost the art Of playing these stupid games you're gonna win again and 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 Not much to lose when you've lost it all But why must you take it so hard when you fall Cathy's part I'll pay again at your asking price I must accept it but your look's like ice Amelia's part I've tried to delay to put off the day It comes clear you don't need me here Cathy's part Dragged through the mill numb to it all Just when I thought it was my turn to call Amelia's part I know it is time for me to leave Turn my worst fears into certainty But I can't bring myself to leave for somewhere else Without you forcing me which you won't do which means that
