The Gambler lyrics

The Gambler

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 flashing 
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 ..
