Daydreams of walking in love

A walk in the park of hearts and aces

A thousand steps, a thousand heartbeat paces

The day is still too young to turn around

Play the game rather than put cards face down

On without any direction in mind

And onward until the end of time

Toe to toe, fleet of foot in drunkenness

Clothed in an Emperor’s cloth of nakedness

Standing near another person at noon

Tempted to dance like dreams across the moon

Struck down by the sound of a ringing bell

The end of the trance by a broken spell

Holding upright in hand the old maid’s queen

Thinking that you’ve been cheated out again
