Aces Up Your Sleeve

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
