Playing cards. Have you got any sevens?
You always win, no matter what I do
You ask back if I’ve got an eleven
I drop my head and hand the card to you

We will always play. I will always lose
It’s just the way our relationship goes
And I won’t stop playing. Got any two’s?
I kiss you right on the tip of your nose

Never leave me. Let us stay in this game
Let us be together forever more
You look at me, like you feel just the same
I slide my two over across the floor

I’d lose anything. I don’t need to win
With you by my side, I’ve won everything
