The Cards are Dealt, the Hand is Played - David Faul 2024

David Faul, original words and music, 2024
The Cards are Dealt, the Hand is Played
There's a blue moon over the town tonight
New mother, she ain't feelin' right
The cards are dealt, the hand is played
There's a rumblin' on the corner
It's a dead man recently sober
The cards are dealt, the hand is played
Mark the fortunate ones as safe
And flush enough to buy a round on any random, rainy day
If I could I spread some pain
Pain...
I'd spread some pain around
In the morning children gather
For their prayers, missing mother
The cards are dealt, the hand is played
She's waiting to cross over
She's grown colder, she lost her lover
The cards are dealt, the hand is played
Mark the fortunate ones as safe
And flush enough to buy a round on any random, rainy day
If I could I spread some pain
Pain...
I'd spread some pain around
There's a blue moon over the town tonight
We all feel it...somethin' ain't right
The cards are dealt and the hand it is played
The cards are dealt and the hand it is played
