**(Verse 1: Male)** [Steel Guitar Intro]
We built this love on dreams and wishes,
Like a tower high in the sky.
But the winds of doubt came whisperin’,
And now it’s starting to die.
I see the cracks in the foundation,
Every promise that we made,
Falling down like this old house of cards,
In the light of our mistakes.
**(Chorus: Both)**
Oh, we played the game of chance,
But every hand we held so tight,
Is now crumbling apart.
In this house of cards, we thought we'd reign,
Now it feels like we’re just playing in vain.
With every tear that we can’t ignore,
This love’s a gamble we can’t afford.
**(Verse 2: Female)**
I remember nights we danced in the moonlight,
Promises wrapped in a sweet, soft glow.
But the shadows crept in like a thief,
And they stole what we used to know.
Now I’m standing here, feeling lonely,
In a room filled with memories burned.
Each laugh and each whisper,
Just ashes of love that we yearned.
**(Chorus: Both)**
Oh, we played the game of chance,
But every hand we held so tight,
Is now crumbling apart.
In this house of cards, we thought we'd reign,
Now it feels like we’re just playing in vain.
With every tear that we can’t ignore,
This love’s a gamble we can’t afford.
**(Bridge: Male)**
Maybe we were too young to know,
That love's not just a simple game.
And now we’re left with broken pieces,
Caught in the ashes of our blame.
**(Verse 3: Both)**
But if we could turn back the hands of time,
I’d hold you close, never let go.
We’d rebuild this house, brick by brick,
With a love that only we can show.
But here we stand amidst the ruins,
Each card we played now tells a story,
Of the love that slipped away from me......mmmmmm
