[Verse 1] I walked through years With my hand out Thinking one day You'd call me home Every smile Looked like a doorway Every touch Could be my own [Pre-Chorus] But the train kept moving Past my station Every almost Turned to dust I kept asking For a sign Got quiet answers And bad luck [Chorus] Not in the cards Not for me Not the one You want to see I gave my heart I lost the part Not in the cards Not in the cards No more trying No more chase I know my place I know my face If love won't stay Then let it pass Not in the cards Not in the cards [Verse 2] I wore my best Like it meant something Showed up early Left alone Watched good men Take the roses Watched my own luck Turn to stone I told myself Maybe tomorrow Maybe her name Was still ahead But every night Got a little colder Every hope Went back to bed [Pre-Chorus] So I stopped asking For a miracle Stopped my hands From reaching out If I was made For someone's forever No one ever Showed me how [Chorus] Not in the cards Not for me Not the one You want to see I gave my heart I lost the part Not in the cards Not in the cards No more trying No more chase I know my place I know my face If love won't stay Then let it pass Not in the cards Not in the cards [Bridge] Maybe that's life Maybe that's time Taking what it wants And leaving lines I don't blame you I don't blame me Some doors stay shut Some souls don't see [Final Chorus] Not in the cards Not for me Not the one You want to see I gave my heart I lost the part Not in the cards Not in the cards No more trying No more chase I know my place I know my face If love won't stay Then let it pass Not in the cards Not in the cards
