[Verse 1] I kept your queen tucked in my coat A bent red corner, ink worn thin The hand we almost played still floats Like a card I never let fall in [Pre-Chorus] I count the deals I couldn't change The doors that never turned to rooms Some losses only look like chains Till you lay them down and make some room [Chorus] I fold the hand, I leave the table No more asking what might've been The cards I held were never stable I choose the road that's opening I fold the hand, I let it go The next turn's mine; I finally know [Verse 2] Your ace, her laugh, the summer's king A deck of almosts, stacked too high I won't keep shuffling everything To make one vanished chance reply [Breakdown] No marked deck, no second deal Just the weight of what was real [Final Chorus] I fold the hand, I leave the table No more asking what might've been The cards I held were never stable I choose the road that's opening I fold the hand, I let it go The next turn's mine—I'm moving on [Outro] The next turn's mine I'm moving on
