Poker Night Plea

[Intro]  
I hear the clock, it’s ticking slow,  
But my heart is ready for the show.  
It’s poker night, oh what a thrill,  
My buddies wait, they know the drill.  

[Verse 1]  
She’s in the kitchen, pots and pans,  
Counting the cards, making her plans.  
Telling me stories, pulling me tight,  
But I got a showdown waiting tonight.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
I love her smiles, her sweet embrace,  
But this card game’s got me in a race.  
Suits on the table, drinks in the air,  
But I’ve got this tug of war to bear.  

[Chorus]  
Oh, let me be, just a little while,  
Let me roll the dice and play my style.  
When the chips are down, I’ll come back home,  
But for now, it’s time to roam.  

[Verse 2]  
She whispers softly, "Stay with me, dear,"  
But my friends are waiting, they've got the beer.  
The cards are calling, the night’s still young,  
Under the stars, songs to be sung.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
She says, "What about dinner? We never share..."  
I promise I’ll be back; it’s just not fair!  
To keep me locked in, so let me go,  
I’ll bring back tales from the poker show.  

[Chorus]  
Oh, let me be, just a little while,  
Let me roll the dice and play my style.  
When the chips are down, I’ll come back home,  
But for now, it’s time to roam.  

[Bridge]  
The laughter and banter, it fills the room,  
While I’m stuck here, under the gloom.  
Can’t she see it’s just one night?  
It’ll make me whole, I’ll feel alright.  

[Chorus]  
Oh, let me be, just a little while,  
Let me roll the dice and play my style.  
When the chips are down, I’ll come back home,  
But for now, it’s time to roam.

[Outro]  
So here’s my plea, hear my heart’s call,  
Let me go play, I love you, after all.  
When morning comes, I’ll be by your side,  
Just need this night, let me enjoy the ride.
