Jilted Lovers & Broken Hearts Songtext
von Brandon Flowers

Is there anyone out there?
Somewhere I can belong
Man, the city just ain′t so kind tonight

I need a place to take refuge
See, I been loving you blind
And I guess that made it hard for me to find

That we were caught up
In the middle of a worn out dream
I knew we were in trouble
But baby, I almost screamed

When I saw you dancing on the moon now
I watched him spin you 'round and ′round
Why did you roll your dice, show your cards?
Jilted lovers and broken hearts
You're flying away while I'm stuck here on the ground

Is there anyone out there?
Somewhere I can belong
Man, the city just ain′t so kind tonight


And if I had my suspicions
I kept them out of my heart
Just wished I would have known right from the start

That you′d be speaking in riddles
And you'd never confide
You know I know we were in trouble
But honey, I almost cried

When I saw you dancing on the moon now
I watched him spin you ′round and 'round
Why did you roll your dice, show your cards?
Jilted lovers and broken hearts
You′re out on the wind and I'm still waiting to be found

You did a fine job of hiding
That crooked ace up your sleeve
You doubled down my direction
You kiss me on the cheek and leave

I followed you through the darkness
I followed you through the cold
Woman, I can tell you one thing
You′re gonna wish you could go back and fold


Why did you roll your dice, show your cards?
Jilted lovers and broken hearts
You're flying away while I'm stuck here on the ground
Why did you roll your dice, show your cards?
Jilted lovers and broken hearts
You′re out on the wind and I′m still waiting to be found

Yeah, will I ever win?
Only time will tell
You've gotta suffer to remember how well
That our ideals never really marched in time
That′s the bottom line
Jilted lovers and broken hearts
