You burn the ground to hold your position You ran away if I came too close You kept track of balance and pressure All the dreams and desires I want some more Red Black Green for the jackpot Take you down I want to take you I want to take you down I want to take you down with me We had the motion we had the grace We had a sense of time and place We wrote the rules, we played the game
And it would never be the same It was the beauty while we played We played to win but no one did We grew old we moved ahead From dance hall days for higher stakes You spun the wheel to keep my attention You danced away if I missed a beat You were queen of present and future I was king and cavalier On our tour de force
