lyrics

Born to sing, born to roll the dice
Born to set sail on an ocean of sacrifice
For more sweet life 

Sitting in my old bed ruminating but it ain’t a crime
Thinking ‘bout the future but I wish I was back in time
When you were mine 

Oh baby I’m crying
And the feeling in my heart is strange Since you went away
It don’t feel the same
Got a limping gait, got a walking cane

Now I’m living in the city like a stranger that no one sees
Trying to keep my head above the trouble that comes in three’s
Poor, poor pitiful me

Do you remember?
When everybody played along till the game got done, till the loot was won
But it ain’t over till the song is sung
So baby let me roll the dice
Let me pay the price for this sacrifice
And if you won’t play fair girl I won’t play nice

When the sun came up the streets were as cold as ice
And I filled my cup with a warm tear from my eye
As you passed by
Just thinking about when you were mine
