I still remember once a proud boy far from home The fighter and the gambler... A rogué with spell and joy Bad reputation they said he could never die But now is the needle turning his heart and mind in black And when the stars are falling Tearing out my soul A broken hero that can't take it anymore When devil rules the game Repent before the fall Now take me to the place where I will cry no more The brave and fearless cowboy Got lost by the evil lies A renegade who was Defeated and overcome He's running out of alibis To get thru another day He needs the rush one last time Before comes the hell to pay Are you out there? I really need you now I want to believe I can give it up But I guess it will never set me free Dedicated to Phil Lynott
