Elusive

she's a gambler spinning wheels
the poisoned victim a look of steal
the coldest heart you've ever felt
the coldest hands you've ever held

ticking down on her way
a million miles still no headway
has her love truly blown
in her mind I'm proud to roam

she's elusive I'm awake
defiantly real there's nothing fake
a mystery now to me and you
open my eyes as I'm next to you
she says my destiny lies in the hands that set me free

a wreckless night she hears me breathe
cursing the skies of this company
you've lost the wisdom deep inside
her bitterness shows its side

if it's true I am doomed
what more is there to hold on to
a strand of hair is all I own
a gift to me this sorry soul

she's elusive I'm awake
defiantly real there's nothing fake
a mystery now to me and you
open my eyes as I'm next to you
she says my destiny lies in the hands that set me free

something says this ain't right
there's more to her than meets the eye
she comes and goes at any time
back in my head to another time

she's elusive I'm awake
defiantly real there's nothing fake
a mystery now to me and you
open my eyes as I'm next to you
she says my destiny lies in the hands that set me free
