Call My Bluff (Live)

Whit Snake

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I want someone who walks the long blocks with me
Shares the quiet and the clutter
Knows the parts I don’t want to be
And the ones that make me sad
I’ll stand here broken, knees still raw from the fall
Let me finish speaking before we risk it all
Push back when I’m certain, be kind when I’m wrong
I can be stubborn, Even when Im Strong
I am a mess that takes time to unchain
Understand me, argue nice, breathe slow
I want to love you even when its best to let you go

[Chorus]
Call my bluff
Hold the line
Let me get away with needing you tonight
Call my bluff
Do not let me hide
Let me get away with needing you tonight

[Verse 2]
I want someone who breathes my breath
Tilts the room so old corners look new
The things I’ve hated, I don't hate in you
Keep your strings cut. Mine are cut too
When I sleep, hold me tight till the noise drowns out
Kiss my forehead, make me calm when I want to shout
Sweetness makes me gag, but you make it right
I'll talk tough but you better stay the night
Hold my voice and keep the time
Even though you know that Im not fine

[Chorus]
Call my bluff
Hold the line
Let me get away with needing you tonight
Call my bluff
Do not let me hide
Let me get away with needing you tonight

[Bridge]
I pick small fights , get into binds
I wear a giant’s coat with a child’s spine
Every door I close traps me inside
I always scream inside my own mind
If I start to run, meet me half way
Hold me tight till the anger floats away

[Chorus]
Call my bluff
Hold the line
Let me get away with needing you tonight
Call my bluff
Do not let me hide
Let me get away with needing you tonight

[Outro]
Call my bluff, hold the line
Let me get away with needing you... tonight
tonight
tonight
tonight
tonight
