The High Roller

Are you seeking after fortune?
Is there a rainbow calling your name saying
To seek out and find all that’s gold
Do you need to have wealth with you real soon
Burning bright through the night when it’s cold

High Roller
Playing with the best of the best
There’s no time left for your heart’s cry
You told her
Baby I can stay right here for now
But soon I’ll say good bye

All the very pretty people
Who come to all your pretty parties, swaying
As long as the song plays strong
When the music and the fun is all done
They’re all saying
Gotta run, been a thrill, gotta move along.

Lonely High Roller
What’cha gonna do when it’s through
When the praises and smiles all cease
You hold her
Baby when I find a calmer mind
Maybe then, I will see that peace

Someone grieves over you
You don’t know Him
He’s the one
Who sent His Son down to us to
Pay the price for your strife
You don’t have to.
Lay it down
You must surrender you heart to Him

Watch out there goes the high roller
See how he likes to play
See how he’s sold his own soul for
A price too high to pay

Now the player’s getting older
The people in his life are leaving quickly
He’s finding himself all alone
He could not make her stay he’d just hold her
When she left him bereft, he would only say

I’m a high roller
Looking for the next big conquest
Something no one could fly over
He told her
There would be a day if she’d just stay
That he might really love her

Give all your heart to Him
Find real freedom
Find release
Lay hold of peace that you’re looking for
All the glitter this sad
World will offer
Fades away
Jesus will show you a better way.
