In this room, sitting by your side

Cause it rains for hours and the phone is off its hook

Standing on the edge casting lights to set me up

Before you knock me down

Summers edge and drown me

Betting on our own lives

Making up for all time we lost



In this house of cards we're all holding hearts and spades

(One breath, one step, could knock it all down)

But lead with your eyes and you give it away

(Decide, Design, to cut from the clouds)

When the people you love get lost in the shuffle

(When you leave, you leave nothing but broken hearts)

Let it go and then you fold



So we stay on the open

We drive for hours and still no end in sight at all

Driving in you car

Miss the stop sign fall in love

Just to get knocked down

Summers edge and drown me

Betting on our own lives

Making up for all time we lost



In this house of cards we're all holding hearts and spades

(One breath, one step, could knock it all down)

But lead with your eyes and you give it away

(Decide, Design, to cut from the clouds)

When the people you love get lost in the shuffle

(When you leave, you leave nothing but broken hearts)



Pull with your punches and burn with your cigaretts

Pull like a punch, burn like a cigarett, forever
