I live my life in chains
Got my hands in chains
And I can't stick
with the cards
That I got with a deal Like this
I must insist
That a girl's got more to do
Then be the way you
think a woman should
I'm taking it into my own hands
In this man's land I can
understand
Why I'm taking command
Had enough of stuff
And now
it's time to think about me
me yeah
And you can
easily gamble your life away
Second after second And
day by day
You play the game or
you walk away
It's a new turn on a blue day
And a cool deal of life for me
And it's all good
I know that the spades
are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs
are weapons of war
I know that diamonds
mean money for this art
But that's not the
shape of my heart
I've always played it safe
nothing's ever safe
Give me the courage to back my
own convictions
Every decision I make I pay
it back and more
Now turn the cards and let them
fall to me
Cos I don't need to play on
with the hand that they
have given me
I'll give it back cos
it's not the way it has to be
And you can
easily gamble your life away
Second after second And
day by day
You play the game
or you walk away
It's a new turn on a blue day
And a cool deal of life for me
And it's all good
I know that the spades
are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs
are weapons of war
I know that diamonds
mean money for this art
But that's not the
shape of my heart
That's not the shape
The shape of my heart
My heart
That's not the shape of my heart
And you can
easily gamble your life away
Second after second And
day by day
You play the game
or you walk away
It's a new turn on a blue day
And you can
easily gamble your life away
Second after second And
day by day
You play the game
or you walk away
It's a new turn on a blue day
And a cool deal of life for me
And it's all good
I know that the spades
are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs
are weapons of war
I know that diamonds
mean money for this art
But that's not the
shape of my heart
But that's not the
shape of my heart
But that's not the shape
The shape of my heart
