Words & Music by Carly Emerick & Hoyt Emerick
Verse 1:
You made a clean get away, said your sorry you couldn't stay
Left in the dress I bought for this, Is this another one of your tricks?
Lead In 1:
Is this another one of your games?
Like when you introduce me and forget me name!
Chorus:
There's magic when we kiss, but your show then takes a twist
Houdini answer this, Is this another one of your tricks?
A box of cherry chocolates,
Is this another one of your tricks?
A diamond-studded bracelet,
Is this another one of your tricks?
Verse 2:
You said that we had a plan, on an island in the sand
You'd put us up at the Ritz, Is this another one of your tricks?
Lead In 2:
Cause it sounds like another game!
Your disappearing act drives me insane!
(Repeat Chorus)
Spoken: Thought you were there & then you were gone!
Verse 3:
You're hiding cards up your sleeve,
Pulling rabbits out of hats should I believe
that you're crying now cause I called it quits...
Is this another one of your tricks?
Lead In 3:
Yeah it's always another game!
No matter what you say it ends the same!
(Repeat Chorus)
