Five & Zero

(الألبوم: The Game's Up - 1980)

The wheel was spinning away my earnings and
The bets had stopped
Across the table she smiled to herself
With her eyes dropped a little
She put her winnings on to five and zero
Then she looked my way
This was the moment that I had to angle to
Make my play

My heart was thumping as I bought my chips
And then I placed them next to hers
The room was hazy and the tension building
As I looked across at her
As the ball dropped into the slot at zero
She smiled a secret smile
My hand was trembling as I reached for my winnings
Then gave her back a pile
And if it's all right
I think I'll run and hide
Run and hide

As I followed her into the soft moonlight
I said you brought me luck
She said It's no fun when you're losing or
Giving up
So I held her to me and I breathed the fragrance of her
Breathtaking perfume
And the croupier said "Les jeux sont faits"
As I saw she'd left the room
And if it's all right
I think I'll run and hide
Run and hide

Zero, five and zero
