Roll the Dice

Red dress, she caught me in a stare
With her eyes as bright as candles
But a mind you couldn’t handle
Reckless, the things that she would say
Could leave a man entangled
Could leave a man in shambles
But this time, I know, it’s set in stone
To say the words and let you know
That I am yours and yours alone
And prove to you there’s more to show
And I believe it’s not too late to try
Too late to change your mind
To leap and feel alive
A romantic alibi
I feel this way is nothing new to me
Too strange to let it be
A part of history
A romantic blasphemy
Helpless, she brought me to my knees
As she set the world on fire
It was fueled by my desires
Endless, I’m prone to roll the dice
When her smile is an illusion
Made a love of my delusion
But this time, I know, it’s set in stone
To say the words and let you know
That I am yours and yours alone
And prove to you there’s more to show
And I believe it’s not too late to try
Too late to change your mind
To leap and feel alive
A romantic alibi
I feel this way is nothing new to me
Too strange to let it be
A part of history
A romantic blasphemy
You have the angels all reduced to tears
When there’s nothing much left my dear
What else is left to say?
Is that I’ll never pull the plug on you?
And I believe it’s not too late to try
Too late to change your mind
To leap and feel alive
A romantic alibi
I feel this way is nothing new to me
Too strange to let it be
A part of history
A romantic blasphemy
