Lyrics
You've seen angels dance in candlelight
you can't hear church bells she see's herself in white
Keep her hands tied does that set you free
At her bedside you still disagree
Arrive with your birthday suit on
New as the day you were born
One thing's uncertain
Why do the days all seem to slip away
As if they won't come back
When did you choose to give your bride away
Now there's no turning back
You hideaway and once again
Life deals you back the card
Dance with danger while you walk the lie
Perfect stranger could you pass her by
Reach for a new low or pull one from your sleeve
Soften the blow and hope that she won't bleed
She folds on the cards you've laid down
Now two can play solitaire alone
One thing's for certain
Why do the days all seem to slip away
As if they won't come back
When did you choose to give your bride away
Now there's no turning back
You hideaway and once again
Life deals you back the card
Why do the days all seem to slip away
As if they won't come back
When did you choose to give your bride away
Now there's no turning back
Ahhh.. They've read your secret almanac
Ahhh.. Your Tarot cards and Zodiac
Ahhh.. Once againl life deals you back the card
