Lyrics:

I call you up, you pick up
You call my bluff, on the cards of love
You hold to close, your hands to your chest
I can't read your eyes but I confess
It's lonely far from you
Even when you're right by me
It's only why I wait for you
Take my hand, yeah

Why do I beg like a child for your candy?
Why do I come after you like I do
I love you, whatever you are I swear
You'll be my angel, you

I play my cards best I can
But I lose my luck when you're not here
My darling heart, won't you please give in
I may be strong but I want you back again
When you're not here it's hard to pretend
It's all alright again
When you're not here, love
It's hard to pretend, it's all alright still

Why do I beg like a child for your candy?
Why do I come after you like I do
I love you, whatever you are I swear
You'll be my angel, you

Watch the deck
Count your cards
Makes no sense
That I'm always losing
When you're gone

Why do I beg like a child for your candy?
Why do I come after you like I do
I love you, whatever you are I swear
You'll be my angel, you
