Not In The Cards

Lyrics

Got another post-card today

This one was post-marked Santa Fe

All she had to say what thanks

For giving her the space

She was needing

Got out all her other cards tonight

And I've been pouring over every line

But the more I do

The less I think I like, what I'm reading

Chorus:

There isn't one wish you were here

I miss you my dear

I want you to know

I can't wait to come home

Not one single line saying distance in time

Is making me see

I'm really all that she needs

With every picture post-card she sends

There's a picture I'm starting to get

That feeling from me

I hope is there in her heart

Cause it's not meant to be

No it's not in the cards

Here's one I got a week ago

It's from Sananta Mexico

Where there should have been an "I love you"

She wrote Adios, at the bottom

I tried to reach her if I thought it would help

But the cards are speaking for themselves

And I've got to play and though the hand she delt

Ain't a hot one

Chorus:

There isn't one wish you were here

I miss you my dear

I want you to know

I can't wait to come home

Not one single line saying distance in time

Is making me see

I'm really all that she needs

With every picture post-card she sends

There's a picture I'm starting to get

That feeling from me I hope is there in her heart

Cause it's not meant to be

No it's not in the cards

With every picture post-card she sends

There's a picture I'm starting to get

That feeling from me

I hope is there in her heart

Cause it's not meant to be

No it's not in the cards

Oh, no,no,no

No it's not in the cards

Bye, bye baby

Cause it's not in the cards

(Nice knowing you B****)
