I call you up, you pick up   You call my bluff, on the cards of love   You hold to close your hands to your chest   I can't read your eyes, but I confess   It's lonely far from you   Even when you're right by me   It's only why I wait for you to take my hand      Why do I beg like a child for your candy?   Why do I come after you like I do I love you   Whatever you are I swear   You'll be my angel   You      I play my cards best I can   But I lose my luck when you're not here   My darling heart, won't you please give in   I may be strong but I want you back again   When you're not here love, it's hard to pretend   It's all alright again   When you're not here love it's hard to pretend   It's all alright...still      Why do I beg like a child for your candy?   Why do I run after you like I do I love you   Whatever you are I swear   You'll be my angel   You      Watch the deck, count your cards   Makes no sense, that I'm always losing   When you're gone      Why do I beg like a child for your candy?   Why do I run after you like I do I love you   Whatever you are I swear   You'll be my angel   You      When you're gone...
