[00:17.970]They all sat around in a circle laughing and all telling lies
[00:27.780]Then the tall one he bumped in a dollar se said boys I've got nothing to hide
[00:37.650]The King and the Queen stood together then the ace he would not be to blame
[00:47.220]And if the cards were all laid on the table then love could be more than a game
[00:57.090]And if the stars didn't shine on the water then the sun wouldn't burn on the sand
[01:07.340]And if I were the man you wanted I would not be the man that I am
[01:21.280]And I have seen my share of long nights and I have told my share of lies
[01:30.720]And I have run into the darkness when I saw the look in your eyes
[01:40.590]But if the night didn't lie in the darkness then the daylight would be hard to find
[01:50.090]And if the truth didn't turn to a weakness I would have never have spoken my mind
[02:00.030]And if the stars didn't shine on the water
[02:37.750]So if you're going out to Carolina then don't linger in New Mexico
[02:47.310]And if you think of the one there behind you then you might not feel so alone
[02:57.500]And if the stars didn't shine on the water
[03:12.070]
[03:19.220]And if I were the man you wanted I would not be the man that I am
