Leon Bridges - Bet Ain't Worth The Hand

I better slow down
'Cause I keep keep trippin' on words I don't wanna say
Just tell me right now
'Cause I keep keep seein' the signs you want me to stay

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've had
And I hope you understand

Don't get your feelings broken for nothin'
Maybe I'm leavin'
Leavin' here with nothin'
I might regret that I can't be your man
Sometimes the bet isn't worth the hand
And I can't keep lettin' this wave carry me away
So tell me right now
'Cause I keep keep seein' the signs you want me to stay

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

Don't get your feelings broken for nothin'
Maybe I'm leavin'
Leavin' here with nothin'
I might regret that I can't be your man
Sometimes the bet isn't worth the hand
(I been hurt before, don't wanna hurt no more)
(I been hurt before)
Sometimes the bet isn't worth the hand
(I been hurt before)
I gotta let ya know, girl
I can't let it go any longer
Sometimes it ain't worth the hand
