The Riddle
Lyricist:Nan Knighton, Frank Wildhorn
See the moon slink down in the sky darling Let your fantasies fly darling Life is cold, and the game is old
Just see how virtue repays you You turn and someone betrays you Betray him first and the game's reversed
For we all are caught in the middle Of one long treacherous riddle Can I trust you? Should you trust me too?
We shamble on through this hell Taking on more secrets to sell 'Til there comes a day When we sell our souls away
Through the mist your lover is beckoning Comes that moment of reckoning Faces change, even smiles grow strange
And we all have so many faces The real self often erases Enticing lies, flicker through our eyes
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Feel the terror draw ever nearer The more you stare in the mirror But hold your own, face the wind alone
Reel on love, toughen your scars Year by year we're falling like stars 'Till there comes a day When we sell our souls away
Can I run to you? Are you true to me? I'll do unto you as you do to me And we slowly learn someone has to burn Better you than me
Oh , ev'ry Judas once loved a Jesus But fin'lly treason will seize us And only fools follow golden rules We all are caught in the middle Of one long treacherous riddle
Of who trusts who Maybe I'll trust you But can you trust me? Wait and see
