about
Written & arranged by Phil Dean
lyrics
Bitter and changeable, tossed up and down
Sorely in need of a rest
Struck by the force of the hand he's been dealt
Unsure what to do for the best
And he said "Take me as you find me
And you'll not get a thing more from me
I've lived through the war and I've lived on the sea
And I've broken the backs of the demons I fleed
But there's nothing in life 'twas more precious to me
Than the girl I loved so cruelly taken from me
All those long years ago when we tried not to see
That the storm clouds had gathered, it was going to be
A land red with blood as the power gave out
But it's too late to change things, of that there's no doubt"
So he puts down the hand he's been dealt
And retires from playing
