Dice Game - Chris Robinson Brotherhood

All I recall are the shadows in a long New York fade away

Passin' time with such matters on a six-hour drive to LA

Got some friends in the canyon

Got a dirty window pane

Got a girl back up in Ida

Things have never been the same

She sees no fences

She feels no reins

I rolled a couple just to get me there

Took a hit

Let in some air and thought of you

We made a promise by the eyelash moon

I told you I would be home soon

And I aim to please

Stop to grab a cup of coffee

Near the LA county line

This evening finds me lonely

But by daybreak, I’ll be fine

It comes and it goes

Always knows I’m there

Sometimes, a scoundrel

Sometimes, a thief

Sometimes, in public

Sometimes, discreet

Sometimes ugly

Sometimes, there’s no reason why

And sometimes, it’s a look in your eye

That says, «I aim to please»

Not everybody’s lucky

You know that’s true

But not everybody rolls a dice like you

Listen to a loser and you might give in

Listen to a lonely and you got no friends

Listen to a lover if you want some truth

Listen to a mother if you want some blues

Listen to your heart if you lose your way

Try to make some sunshine every day

Try to make some sunshine every day
