Poker and Pawns

A pawn in the game A bet on the table To you I'm just a name To me, you're the gamble Place the bid high I play to win Cause when I hold the deck Your feelings will spin Now the tables have turned It's your heart, my hands So toss the dice again And hope in your favor it lands In the end, I'm just a pawn You're still just the bet But now I'm the checkmate queen Of a jackpot you'll never get
