The Angel and the Gambler |
| 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 be 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 reins |
| 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 |
| Don’t you think I’m the saviour |
| Don’t you think I could save you |
| Don’t you think I could save your life |
| (5:35-Solo: Dave Murray) |
| (5:59-Solo: Janick Gers) |
| 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 |
