Fold the Hand

[Verse 1]
I kept your queen tucked in my coat
A bent red corner, ink worn thin
The hand we almost played still floats
Like a card I never let fall in

[Pre-Chorus]
I count the deals I couldn't change
The doors that never turned to rooms
Some losses only look like chains
Till you lay them down and make some room

[Chorus]
I fold the hand, I leave the table
No more asking what might've been
The cards I held were never stable
I choose the road that's opening
I fold the hand, I let it go
The next turn's mine; I finally know

[Verse 2]
Your ace, her laugh, the summer's king
A deck of almosts, stacked too high
I won't keep shuffling everything
To make one vanished chance reply

[Breakdown]
No marked deck, no second deal
Just the weight of what was real

[Final Chorus]
I fold the hand, I leave the table
No more asking what might've been
The cards I held were never stable
I choose the road that's opening
I fold the hand, I let it go
The next turn's mine—I'm moving on

[Outro]
The next turn's mine
I'm moving on
