Lyrics Fortuneteller - Deep Purple

Fortuneteller

Cast your eyes into the crystal
Deep inside the mystery
Is that a vision of a lonely man
I fear it looks a lot like me Is that a man without a woman
Whose empty life is but a shell
Empty hearts will echo
Forever in the wishing well
Fortuneteller
You’ve got to help me find an end to the nightmare
'Cause I can’t stand this pain and the curse of time
Somewhere in your eyes I’ll find the answer
Give me the truth I’ve been looking for
Be my guiding light, I’ll take my chances
Turn the card, seal my fate, close the door
Some days come with a vengeance
Some days I feel so bad
The mirror holds no secrets
I lost the best thing that I had
Fortuneteller
Can you help me to see, is there an end to the sorrow
Or was this slow ride to nowhere always meant to be Somewhere in your eyes I’ll find the answer
Give me the truth I’ve been looking for
Be my guiding light, I’ll take my chances
Turn the card, seal my fate, close the door
She always taking more than she’d need
But we were both to blame somehow
In the heat of the moment I told her to leave
I guess I lost more than I found
But I remember …
