Bluffing Hearts
(Verse 1)
Chronos comes home drunk at night very late,
Stumbling through the door, he can’t walk straight,
I’m annoyed, he’s late again, where has he gone?
He kicks off his shoes, and the T-shirt’s all wrong.
(Pre-Chorus)
Time is going crazy, one hour feels like a second,
In the blink of an eye, summer’s gone, I’m left reckoned.
It seems like yesterday, we were newly in love,
Now we’re like a married couple, just gears that have rust.
(Chorus)
Wrong time, wrong place, wrong space,
Time is dishonest, it lies to my face.
He plays poker with his friends, wasting our dough.
With a poker face hidden behind shades, don’t you know.
(Verse 2)
I think of you often, in the silence of the night,
Memories linger on, but they fade out of sight.
We hugged in the sunlight, now it’s all just blue,
Chronos, is a thief, taking moments that were true.
(Pre-Chorus)
Time is going crazy, one hour feels like a second,
In the blink of an eye, summer’s gone, I’m left reckoned.
It seems like yesterday, we were newly in love,
Now we’re like a married couple, just gears that have rust.
(Chorus)
Wrong time, wrong place, wrong space,
Time is dishonest, it lies to my face.
He plays poker with his friends, wasting our dough.
With a poker face hidden behind shades, don’t you know.
(Bridge)
Moments that slip like cards through my hands,
To the high stakes that we thought we had planned.
Chronos, you’re a bluffer, but I’ll find my way,
I’ll reclaim the lost time, come what may.
(Chorus)
Wrong time, wrong place, wrong space,
Time is dishonest, it lies to my face.
He plays poker with his friends, wasting our dough.
With a poker face hidden behind shades, don’t you know.
(Outro)
I trade the poker chips for love,
In the game of forever, I’m longing for you.
With every high card I play, you bring eternity near,
In this all-in moment, I’ll always hold you dear.
