Cards Are Down Songtext
von The Blue Stones

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 that 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
