Lyrics
When your said you were leaving
I said here we go again
I ain’t even breaking even
In this game I just can’t win.
The cards are stacked against me
Your aces beat my twos
Seems like bad luck travels with me
Like I was born to lose.
I quit, I’ve had enough
Of falling in and out of love
I’m done, I’m through, that’s it
If I can’t have you, I quit.
You were my only sunshine
In a world of pouring rain
So this will be my last time
I can’t go through this again.
I quit I’ve had enough
Of falling in and out of love
I’m done, I’m through, that’s it
If I can’t have you, I quit.
I’m done, I’m through, that’s it
If I can’t have you, I quit…
