Holding The Ace

(Terashain)
2006
Penton/Hassie/Etchells/Carnicom
I watch the setlist at every show for this one. By FAR, my favorite song to sing from DEL. Dave just gave us such a cool guitar sound to work with, and Lance and Mike nail the backing vox. Fun groove, too.
She’s been in here almost every night
I throw her cards and dirty jokes until she smiles
First impressions leave me wanting more
Stakes are rising but my heart just hit the floor

There’s not much I don’t understand
And I’m not a patient man
But she’ll double down in a lover’s rage
And she’s past the bluffing stage… Oh Yeah
She’s such a mystery – yes, but I got the Ace
This heart is history – Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah…..

Lady luck has been her latest flame
She’s on a winning streak with fashion for the game
Hit or stand tonight, I’ll move with grace
She hates to want me but she knows I hold the ace

She breaks the house and takes my heart
It’s tearing me apart
I know she’ll take a hit on Seventeen
With me in all my dreams… Oh, yeah…
She’s such a mystery – because I’m holding the Ace
This heart is history – Oh, Yeah!

She breaks the house and takes my heart
It’s tearing me apart
I know she’ll take a hit on Seventeen
She’s the Queen of all my dreams – Oh, yeah…
She’s such a mystery – such style and Grace
This heart is history – because I’m holding the Ace
She’s such a mystery – Just a mystery, just a mystery
This heart is history – YEAHHHHH!
