Well don't you know I need a little indulgence?
|
Listen to the hunter becoming hunted
|
Every day there's a million advances
|
Don't be too forceful, you'll ruin your chances
|
Well don't you know that time is a broken glass
|
That splinters against the wall?
|
But the picture is coming back now baby,
|
And I want to take it all
|
|
Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
|
There's a time to play a king and a time to be the thief
|
'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep
|
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone
|
|
So let you're body move a little bit closer
|
Silent like the sound proceeding a cyclone
|
Don't you know that powerful thinking
|
Can be a force you don't want to relinquish?
|
Well don't you know that,
|
They say that hanging on will justify the wait?
|
But patience and elated wisdom don't share a common phrase
|
|
Don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
|
There's a time to play a king and a time to be the thief
|
'Cause if you're making all these promises you know you cannot keep
|
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone
|
|
Well, I'm only hanging on for what goes down
|
I'm floating high and my feet don't touch the ground
|
I'd take advantage but I can't see through this charade
|
So don't you, don't go make it harder than hell
|
'Cause when it comes down to the making
|
You better be damned sure you can take it
|
Hey baby
|
|
Well dont go making all these promises you know you cannot keep
|
There's a time to play a king and a time to be a thief
|
'Cause if your making all these promises you know you cannot keep
|
You know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone
|
|
Time will be the thief
|
and your fallen king will end up...
|
A fool, a fool, a lonely sorry fool
|
Oh baby, 'cause I told you baby
|
