Aces Up Your Sleeve

Lyrics

I still turn down the boulevard
 Thinking I'm coming home to you
 I live way down south of town
 On Indiana Avenue
 They say the north side's hummin' now
 Big money and big dreams
 When we lived there
 You kept a pair
 Of aces up your sleeve
 The light is bright in the restaurants
 Where you and he go to be seen
 But there's no light on the barroom floors
 Where you swept them all off of their feet
 I don't know if our love
 Means anything anymore
 But it used to make you breathe
 And it was fair to keep a pair
 Of aces up your sleeve
 My headlights know these old back roads
 It's the perfect sleight of hand
 I'm driven to the darkness by
 The promise I will see again
 The Queen of Hearts has shown her face
 She wants you to believe
 You were never meant to have
 Aces up your sleeve
 You were never meant to have
 Aces up your sleeve
