Lyrics

Lately I've been wondering
If we're gonna part
Are you planning to go, or stay?
I'd never tell you baby
But it touches my heart
Thinking of you gone away

I could never hold you
If you have to go
I know you have to choose
Thought that I was building
A bridge to your heart
But I was building a bridge to the blues

In this game we're playing
Now it's your move
I don't know how to play
Cards on the table
What would that prove?
Can't give the game away

I'm in a corner baby
Tthere's no way out
Any way I play I lose
Thought that I was building a bridge to your heart
But I was building a bridge to the blues

The odds were in my favour
Right from the start
I was in complete command
Don't know how it happened
But you got to my heart
Now you've got the upper hand

You don't have to tell me
We're drifting apart
I'm feeling you slip away
Meantime I'm holding
Each word in my heart
Saving for that rainy day

I can't hold you baby
I won't make a scene
I know I'm gonna hear bad news
Though that I was crossing
A bridge to your heart
But I was crossing a bridge to the blues
