The Blue Stones - Cards Are Down Lyrics

The Blue Stones Lyrics

"Cards Are Down"

I hear you talkin' in a language I don't know
It's strange and heavy with a meaning of its own
You make it sound like you're a one-of-a-kind
And I get the feeling like I'm falling behind

Move a little closer, move a little closer now
All my cards are down

I can feel the pressure, keep myself together
Pushin' through the pain while I'm in it
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
Praying, hoping I don't break when
I can see the lights at the finish
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!

Will I be measured by the choices that I make
The clock is ticking getting hard to see it straight
Do I just call the blind and leave it behind?
And is that just what it takes?

I can feel the pressure, keep myself together
Pushin' through the pain while I'm in it
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
Praying, hoping I don't break when
I can see the lights at the finish
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!

Move a little closer, move a little closer now
All my cards are down and I should take my final bow
Move a little closer, move a little closer now
All my cards are down

I can feel the pressure, keep myself together
Pushin' through the pain while I'm in it
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
Praying, hoping I don't break when
I can see the lights at the finish
'Cause I came here to win it, oh!
