Listen up so I can tell you a story
From lovers growing old
Some wait for fate and glory.
Some would aspire to be bold
The lover walks among the flowers
Wallowing in the sun
Wondering why she left him alone
And out there having fun
The music fades but the song remains.
Love has left us with a lingering pain
Souls are forgotten as results are driven
Reminding us we should all be forgiven
Can you remember the ace I played
Stranded in the middle of a debt repaid
Hoping for a long time
That you would be incline
We learn too late as the night falls
How close we came to distant shores
Snatching at the sky, desperate to see
A sliver of hope of a world that could be
Don’t give in if the pace is slow
Success achieved with another blow
Fresh eyes stare at the skies
Contemplate where this all lies
Can you remember the ace I played
Stranded in the middle of a debt unpaid
Hoping for a long time
That you would be mine
Level the playing field with another blow
Don’t give in if the pace is slow
What the hell is it we all gain
Yearning for a change a different domain
Come with me now, it’s time to go
Floating on a promise of a different show
Forever loved you soon will be
Sailing on a wave of love’s glee
Listen and I'll tell a story
About lovers growing old
Some would wait for fate and glory
Fortune favours the bold
The lovers walk among the flowers
Wallowing in the sun
She no longer cares why she left him alone
Now she is out there having fun
