Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I better slow down
‘Cause I keep, keep tripping on words I don’t wanna say
Just tell me right now
‘Cause I keep, keep seeing the signs you want me to stay
[Verse 2]
I can’t commit
I can’t make plans
Sometimes the bet ain’t worth the hand
I think you’re special
It makes me sad
Don’t wanna wonder what we could have had
And I hope you understand
[Verse 3]
Don’t get your feelings broken for nothing
Maybe I’m leaving
Leaving here with nothing
I might regret that I can’t be your man
Sometimes the bet isn’t worth the hand
And I can’t keep letting this wave carry me away
So, tell me right now
‘Cause I keep, keep seeing the signs you want me to stay
[Verse 4]
I got it bad
I think you know
You’re everything, you’re beautiful
But my life is fast
Can’t make it slow
We’re here right now
Kiss me before I go
But you got to let me go
[Verse 5]
Don’t get your feelings broken for nothing
Maybe I’m leaving
Leaving here with nothing
I might regret that I can’t be your man
Sometimes the bet isn’t worth the hand
(I've been hurt before, don't wanna hurt no more)
Sometimes the bet isn’t worth the hand
I gotta let you know girl
I can’t let it go any longer
Sometimes it ain’t worth the hand
