In the Cards

This isn't the first time nor is it the last,
This time it's not the same,
So many times I've been unable to surpass,
But I'm sure I can win this game.

You sat across from me,
Dealing out the cards;
I pick them up only to see,
All I have are hearts.

I see your diamonds in your eyes,
The red has filled our souls,
Right then and there I realize,
That it is you who has control;

Beating harder in my chest,
Hardly contained by my clothes,
Your allure has gotten my best,
It's what I wanted I suppose.

We lay down our cards and stand,
A flush on each side,
We have the same hand,
We get closer together tongue-tied.

I say "I'll never let you down,
If you never let me go",
Putting on your crown,
"I'll show you how I love you so.

When the days are cold,
And the air is ice,
I'll show you how I hold,
I hope my arms will suffice.

I'll lift you up high,
And show you the world,
I'm not perfect but I'll try,
If you will be my girl".
