The Losing Hand

[Verse]
Cards on the table Hedi smiles wide
His luck's run out nothing left to hide
But listen to him laugh like he's made of gold
In a world of winners he's the story told
[Verse 2]
Ace of spades hides behind that joker's grin
Every round he plays you think he'd win
But fate keeps dealing him a losing hand
Still Hedi's got that bravado stance
[Chorus]
Oh Hedi's got the blues but you'll never know
With a head held high and a heart aglow
In the game of life he may never score
But he takes a bow like he’s got millions more
[Verse 3]
Down to his last chip he winks at fate
Thinks of it's all a dance on heavens gate
While the crowd roars watching his demise
Hedi's convinced he's seen the prize
[Bridge]
King or pauper it's all the same
In Hedi's eyes it’s just a game
No regrets nothing left to lose
In the grand illusion he’s the muse
[Verse 4]
Luck's a fickle mistress shy and coy
She don't care about Hedi's joy
He dances with dreams and shuffles through
A deck of hopes that never grew
