The Gambler Lyrics

I'm out on this ledge

With my hands out stretched

My feet together

I've reached my tether

Take a deep breath

My cheeks get redder

The pavement will spell it I don't need no letter

I gambled everything and now I've got nothing

If I was watching, I'd probably take odds on me jumping

I shuffle to the edge, I'm fifty story's up

And I think this is the end, 'cos I think I wanna jump

Would someone please...

Will they call my home and

Say I won't be back again

Will they call my home and

Say I won't be back again

Will they call my home and

Say I won't be back again

Will they call my home and

Say I won't be back again

Now I know by my standards

That's loads of by-standers

I look down and see the crowd talking in sign language

In the wind my tie's flapping

I can see lights flashingTrip - The Gambler - http://motolyrics.com/trip/the-gambler-lyrics.html

I feel my tears stick to my eye-lashes

There's no going back on this look s like I'm still jumping

I've done the mathematics on it like good will hunting

And all I can hear in my head is unchained melody

Which is strange 'cos I never fell in love with anybody

I left some funeral money and cleaned my flat

Plus a note with the neighbor asking her to clean my flat

I got summer time butter-flies 'cos winters waiting for me

It's a starry night like vincent painted it for me

The bachelor

Who never asked for anything spectacular

I hope they have to peel me off the pavement with a spatchelor

I'm about to risk everything and I've never felt happier

Yet I've never felt angrier

My name is the gambler

Would someone please...

Will they call my home and

Say I won't be back again

Will they call my home and

Say I won't be back again

Will they call my home and

Say I won't be back again

Will they call my home and

Say I won't be back again...
