"Elusive" lyrics

He's a gambler, spinning wheels
Poison victim, look of steel
The coldest heart you've ever felt
The coldest hands you've ever held
Taken down on his way
A million miles, still no headway
Has his love truly blown?
In his mind, I'm proud to roam

He's elusive and I'm awake
Defiantly real, there's nothing fake
A mystery now to me and you
Open my eyes and I'm next to you
He said, "My destiny
Lies in the hands that set me free."

A reckless night he hears me breathe
Cursing the skies of this company
You've lost the wisdom deep inside
His bitterness shows its side
If it's true, I am doomed
What more is there to hold on to?
A strand of hair is all I own
A gift to me, this sorry soul

He's elusive and I'm awake
Defiantly real, there's nothing fake
A mystery now to me and you
Open my eyes and I'm next to you
He said, "My destiny
Lies in the hands that set me free."

(That set me free)

He's elusive and I'm awake
Defiantly real, there's nothing fake
A mystery now to me and you
Open my eyes and I'm next to you
He says my destiny
Lies in the hands that set me, that set me free

Ooh
Mystery now to me and you
Open my eyes and I'm next to you
He says my destiny
Lies in the hands that set me
Lies in the hands that set me free
