Could’ve sworn there was something

In the love we made

Could’ve sworn I touched a piece of you

Your body betrayed

But baby just won’t let me in

Sure, it’s a shame, sure is a sin

He’s been playing to lose, I’ve been betting to win

Baby just won’t let me in

And timing’s just a thing folks blame

When they are afraid

Now it’s time to make a call

Call a spade a spade

So far as the future goes,

Feelings always fade

Never held ’em up my sleeve

But he managed to evade

Baby just won’t let me in

Sure, it’s a shame, sure is a sin

He’s been playing to lose, I’ve been betting to win

Baby just won’t let me in

Love, it’s what burns up the stars

It’s what goes down in flames

Baby, least I took the chance

Least I played the game
