There's a solitary man crying, hold me
It's only because he's a-lonely
If the keeper of time runs slowly
He won't be alive for long!If he only had time to tell of all of the things he planned
With a card up his sleeve, what would he achieve?

In the Belmont chair playing violins
The gambler's face cracks into a grin
As he lays down the king of spadesBut the dealer just stares
There's something wrong here, he thinks
The gambler is seized and forced to his knees
And shot deadHe only wanted more time

But his luck it gave in
As the dawn light crept in
And he lay on the floorFrom the Hundred Year War to the Crimea
With a lance and a musket and a Roman spear

In the service of the KingBefore you met your fate be sure you
Did not forsake your lover
May not be around anymoreThere's a solitary man crying, hold me
It's only because he's a-lonely
If the keeper of time runs slowly
He won't be alive for long!
