The Gypsy

If I had a crystal ball, I would throw it against the wall

'Cause some things, you just don't wanna know

So don't try to read my palm, or predict what we'll become

'Cause the real thing just needs space to grow

I do believe in us, but

But you can't fast forward through

The kinda deep only time can prove

What's the rush, baby, trust what faith can do

Let's not play the game of love with scared money

Let's not say what we'll become

Let's just roll the dice and throw away the cards

You don't have to push so hard

'Cause the gypsy in me needs to roam your heart

(I need to roam ya, I need to roam ya

I need to roam, your heart)

You know I would live my life

Out a suitcase every night

Before I'd let you tie me down

So just lean back and relax

Feel your bare feet in the grass

And let love run on open ground

I do believe in you, but

You can't tell a bird not to fly

You can't tell the sun when to shine

What's the rush, baby, we can take out time

Let's not play the game of love with scared money

Let's not say what we'll become

Let's just roll the dice and throw away the cards

You don't have to push so hard

'Cause the gypsy in me needs to roam your heart

The finest tapestry takes patience and the ability to wait

For each thread to support the bigger picture and the larger purpose

And in the fearless, reckless pursuit of intimate love

It is not the destination it's the journey

Let's not play the game of love with scared money

Let's not say what we'll become

Let's just roll the dice and throw away the cards

You don't have to push so hard

'Cause the gypsy in me needs to roam your heart
