City Boy - Ambition: Me And My Tarot Lyrics

Unfamiliar doorway, crazy figures on the floor

Faces in the hallway staring daggers through the wall

I was at the party but I wished I'd never been

The stranger on the scene, the guest in someone's

dream

The room was smaller with the guests pouring in


"Take a card:' they said, "you need your fortune read"

"Take some good advice and leave when you are led"

The Queen of Broken Hearts had come to warm my

bed

It was getting later the clocks all stayed the same

Everyone was gathered round to play the party game

Someone shouted "Suicide!", and everybody laughed

The game had gone too far and I drew the Hangman's

card

Then they turned the lights back on and left me in the

dark


"Take a card:' they said, "you need your fortune read"

"Take some good advice and leave when you are led"

The Queen of Broken Hearts had come to warm my

bed


We love a hero gone beyond the reach of our

applause -

We scream his name and call "Encore!"
