You burn the ground to hold your position   You ran away if I came too close   You kept track of balance and pressure   All the dreams and desires   I want some more      Red   Black   Green for the jackpot      Take you down   I want to take you down   I want to take you down with me      We had the motion we had the grace   We had a sense of time and place   We wrote the rules, we played the game   And it would never be the same   It was the beauty while we played   We played to win but no one did   We grew old we moved ahead   From dance hall days for higher stakes      You spun the wheel to keep my attention   You danced away if I missed a beat   You were queen of present and future   I was king and cavalier   Of our tour de force      Red   Black   Green for the jackpot      Take you down   I want to take you down   I want to take you down with me      We had the motion we had the grace   We had a sense of time and place   We wrote the rules, we played the game   And it would never be the same   It was the beauty while we played   We played to win but no one did   We grew old we moved ahead   From dance hall days for higher stakes
