Casino
 
Oh don't you know,
Life's too short, there it goes.
Step on, step off,
It's like a fairground ride.
When days are close,
How d'you suppose,
Friends just disappear.
When you need them most.
They don't seem to,
They don't mean to....

Keep faith in me, in our old casino.
Please stay with me, in our old casino.

I've wondered why,
We return, no goodbyes.
Still gambling on,
Circled in our lives.
And round we go,
Heaven knows,
Been playing this game so long,
That I can't tell,
The roulette wheel
From the carousel so,

Keep faith in me, in our old casino,
Please stay with me, in our old casino.
