lyrics

Did the gin run dry?
Did the strawberries die?
Did the film run out?
Was the river in draught?
Did you just give up?
Did trees cease to grow?
Could you climb them no more?
Did Peter Pan age?
Did the lost boys find home?
Did I bore you, I adored you, Did you write the plot this way?
Was my character just not deserving?

Chorus:
Oh I, just couldn't wait no more,
Let you keep rolling til you double score,
While I lose it all on my first throw
No I, just couldn't face the time,
Or let you sentence me to life,
While you go off and figure yours out
I'm laying my cards down

Did the bookshelf break?
Our story at stake?
Did the world place bans on our travelling plans?
Was everything you said you'd do or meant just all a game to you?
I believed it every single time

-Chorus_

Bridge:
I don't wanna be the one to leave
And I don't wanna hurt you as I do
But I don't wanna stick around gambling all my love with a sure lose
