Slow Runner - The Stakes Were Raised lyrics

rate me

Where am I gonna land

In the palm of someone’s hand

I should have known that the good part was over

That you would leave at the end of the summer

But the stakes were raised

And so I looked the other way

The sky turned red

The world came true

In the way I wanted you

I should have guessed that the moment was passing

I didn’t catch all the signs that were flashing

Cause the stakes were raised

And so I looked the other way

All of my hoping just turned into lying

Kidding myself without even trying

I should have noticed the whole thing was dying

But the stakes were raised

And so I looked the other way

The stakes were raised

And so I looked the other way
