Late at night, dark before dawn. You got my favorite red dress on
I'm counting the cards, and I'm loading the dice
You're acting mean, while I'm trying to make nice
I can't guess where we're gonna go. Ain't no tell I can see; I just don't know
I could be wrong, or we could be right. I just hope that you stay with me tonight
Couple days later, we're still doin' fine, long-distance lovers on a telephone line
You say you want me, to come back home
'Cause you don't like it there, when you're all alone
I think I see where it's gonna go. How'd it happen so fast? I just don't know
I could be wrong, or we could be right. I guess I'm gonna stay with you tonight
Couple years later we're both out of our minds. We could call it a day if you were so inclined
But you got priests, and the lawyers, and the judges, and the cops
And all I wanna do is just to make it stop
Wish I knew how it was gonna go. I never saw it coming; guess you never know
I could be wrong, or you could be right. But there ain't nothing left, for you and me tonight
