|
Watch them go, 'cuz one by one they rise to fall |
|
Hearts in tow |
|
It's just a game she's only having fun |
|
She laughs and turns away |
|
Surprised, she mocks 'It's all the same, |
|
tonight's the loss, tomorrows' gain' |
|
and in the end it's so. |
|
Oh! |
|
Stand in line, 'cuz one by one they march in time |
|
in the wings, we stand and watch these foolish things go by |
|
just preparing for the play |
|
aloof she moves, the confidante with practiced step |
|
memory dance, she executes her role, role. |
|
And as the cavalcade begins to thin do you stop and look around |
|
free to choose but not to win |
|
you're just too late, your show is at an end |
|
now you're the victim of your game |
|
through your fingers, watch them slip |
|
familiar moves just hit and miss |
|
the one who never slows |
