Steve Harris - The Angel And The Gambler lyrics

Roll of the dice Take a spin of the wheel Out of your hands now So how do you feel? But you're not gonna win You'd better go back again Do you feel lucky or do you feel scared? Take what luck brings and the Devil may care But you're down on your luck And what will the next day bring? Adrift on the ocean Afloat in a daydream Or lost in a maze Or blind in the haze So what does it matter? So why don't you answer? So why did you send an Angel to mend? Best make decisions, before it's too late Take all your chances Take hold of the reigns A roll of the dice Ahead of the game again Nothing to lose, but so much to gain A little danger, it goes without saying But what do you care? You're gonna go in the end Gate open to Heaven is ready and waiting Or straight down to Hell, can go there as well I'll suffer my craving My soul's not worth saving So why don't you go? Just leave well alone [Chorus] Don't you think I'm a saviour? Don't you think I could save you? Don't you think I could save your life? (repeat 3x) [Chorus] (whispered) [Chorus] There's like a hunger That knocks on your door You've had a taste of it Still you want more You've made your mistakes Won't play it the same again You have been warned but Still you plunge in You play high stakes But there's nothing to win You've only one life And so many things to learn The Angel on one side The Devil the other Which path do you take? Decisions to make Arrive on the crossroads You know where you're going And what if you wait? It may be too late [Chorus] Don't you think I could save you? Don't you think I could save you? Don't you think I could save your life? [Chorus]
