Gamblin'

I got a five-spot plus snake eyes
an alligator tooth and 7 lucky rabbits' feet
but without a queen in my hands last night
I lost all my money and I can't sleep
I got a bat heart wrapped in red silk
and a lodestone that attracts money
I 'm gonna try my luck again tonight
and I hope the new day will be sunny

This Little Tune

This little tune
is not a shadow in the forest
This little tune
is not a bouquet from the florist
it's my blues circus flirting rock and roll
I am gonna try tonight to please your soul
It's not a pray,
it's not a rope that bind
it's not the way for you
to read my mind
it's my blues circus flirting rock and roll
I am gonna try tonight to please your soul

Time Tricks

Time tricks after midnight
make you lose everything you've got
your heart beats like a hammer
and it's something you can't control
it makes you drift around
without purpose or direction
and you are trying desperately
to establish communication
You are wondering : is it true?
or is just a ghost from the past?
Time tricks after midnight
leaves you nothing but misery that hasn't passed
it makes you drift around
without purpose or direction
and you are trying desperately
to establish communication
Fear can make you lose your soul
You can't find the way back home
and it's enough to drive you mad
in the darkness where you roam
it makes you drift around
without purpose or direction
and you are trying desperately
to establish communication

I Wish I Could Fly

Oh...I wish I could fly
Oh... I wish I could read your mind
tell me where you come from
tell me some extra lies
drifting soul without a name
come lay in my arms
Oh...I wonder how far I have to go
Oh... just to find out when I 'm near
all of the simple days are gone
should I say here comes fear?
now standing alone out in the rain
and I just see my mind getting lost again
Oh...trying to touch the sky
Oh...and I 'm looking for an answer
there 's something that keeps me going
that never ends
just to find when I 'm near
Am I facing another sky, do you know?

A Strange Shade Of Red
04:49
|
|||
|
The train left the station without you
but there's a dream waiting when you lay in bed
I know there is nowhere for you to go
everything tonight is painted in a strange shade of red
Television has been feeding you lies
but there's a dream waiting when you lay in bed
you have to stop fooling yourself
everything tonight is painted in a strange shade of red
You have chased down your memories with a bottle of gin
but there's a dream waiting when you lay in bed
your bad reputation opened a secret gate in your mind
everything tonight is painted in a strange shade of red
I know there's a river of thoughts in your head
but there's a dream waiting when you lay in bed
you think that the rain can wash out your past
everything tonight is painted in a strange shade of red
Now you are as mad as some people want you to be
but there's a dream waiting when you lay in bed
You don't care much about losing them
as everything tonight is painted in a strange shade of red

I 'm Leavin' This Town
03:39
|
|||
|
I ‘ll fix myself another drink
and I ‘ll put my travelling shoes on
I ‘m leaving this town
at the break of dawn
This town is full of broken dreams
and the smoke has filled the air
I ‘m gonna find a place where I can breathe
baby please, come with me if you dare
