Cheryl Wheeler - Aces lyrics

rate me

Well, my old friend said to me

I ain't being what I'm supposed to be

Well, I don't know, it could be true

I know I wasn't always there for you.

Chorus:

Now you're ready to walk out, you're ready to run

Talk to me, can't you see

I would never want to do what it seems I've done

You can't deal me the aces and think I wouldn't play

Don't let this be the reason you would walk away.

The things you think that I should do

I've never understood that part of you

I know I've tried to be a friend

But you feel undermined and hurt again.

Now don't let it convince you, don't take it to heart

Compromise and realize you can never really run everything you start

You can't deal me the aces and think I wouldn't play

Don't let this be the reason you would walk away.

And I guess I said I couldn't see

How things could turn out like they've come to be

And if I lied, if I knew

I was only trying to think of you.

Chorus:

Now you're ready to walk out, you're ready to run

Talk to me, can't you see

I would never want to do what it seems I've done

You can't deal me the aces and think I wouldn't play

Don't let this be the reason you would walk away...
