For all the stars And a show of hands It's in the cards Since time began Through all the dawns The midnights What's in the shadows And the sunlight I was there when Adam turned the leaf Jesus wept... oh lord please don't forsake me And the cards they throw on down And the cards they throw on down And the cards they throw on down Devil don't misquote me Through all the suns And sunken moons I've painted hills with the lost trails of many I'm the bars with the crooked smiles It's my eyes that guide you stumbling home The crooked mile Angel eyes with fallen wings I was there when Gabriel cried Oh lord don't forsake me And the cards they throw on down And the cards they throw on down Devil... don't misquote me It's your deal.
