You rolled the dice
I was a blessed skinny guy
_____
You the exquisite delicacy
_____
I the battered troubadour
You the great prima donna
You queen without a crown
The song that I write you
_____
Is nothing but a postscript
If you dance it with another
I embroidered a silver bridge
_____
It's not that I'm sad, damn
_____
There was a miscalculation, I thought
When I have forgotten you
_____
And I'll raise the penultimate glass to your health
_____
You forced me to choose between you and the poison
Into the air and it came up tails
The song that I write you
_____
Is nothing but a postscript
If you dance it with another
I embroidered a silver bridge
