|
Each time that I hold you, your eyes fill with fear, |
|
You can't lose control now, the price is too dear; |
|
But love, I have heard you crying in the dark, |
|
And the tears on your pillow came bleeding, weeping from your heart; |
|
Oh Sinner, you're losing all that you had, |
|
Your day is in pieces, your night has gone mad, |
|
And love cannot touch you, the search has no end, |
|
And the one you've forgotten was really your only friend... |
|
Then your soul flies to Heaven |
|
You reach out for me |
|
But the door will not open, |
|
You've thrown away the key; |
|
No the door will not open, |
|
You've thrown away the key... |
|
Oh Stranger beware the life that you lead, |
|
Is filled with the warnings you can or will not read; |
|
Your castle has fallen, it lies in the sand, |
|
I heard your voice calling, I thought I felt the brush of your hand... |
|
Oh Gambler remember the love that you lend, |
|
Will never come back for the game has no ending; |
|
The smiler is calling, your turn for the deal, |
|
And the aces keep falling with every spin of the wheel; |
|
Then you gather your winnings, |
|
You're ready to leave, |
|
But the door will not open, |
|
You've thrown away the key |
|
Oh there's no point in staying, |
|
So don't wait to see, |
|
For the door will not open, |
|
You've thrown away the key. |
