He's a gambler spinning wheels
A poisoned victim, a look of steel
The coldest heart you've ever felt
The coldest hands you've ever held
Ticking down on his way
A million miles still no headway
Has his love truly blown
In his mind I'm proud to roam
He's elusive, I'm awake
Defiantly real there's nothing fake
A mystery now to me and you
I open my eyes and I'm next to you
He says my destiny
Lies in the hands that set me free
A reckless night, he hears me breathe
Cursing the skies of this company
You've lost the wisdom deep inside
His bitterness shows its side
If it's true I am doomed
What more is there to hold on to
A strand of hair is all I own
A gift to me this sorry soul

He's elusive, I'm awake
Defiantly real there's nothing fake
A mystery now to me and you
I open my eyes and I'm next to you
He says my destiny
Lies in the hands that set me free

He's elusive, I'm awake
Defiantly real there's nothing fake
A mystery now to me and you
I open my eyes and I'm next to you
He says my destiny
Lies in the hands that set me free
Oh, a mystery now to me and you
I open my eyes and I'm next to you
He says my destiny
Lies in the hands that set me
Lies in the hands that set me free
