is there one
more train from this dusky town tonight?
Is there one more moon is which I can delight?
Is there one more game to loose the aces from my sleeve?
Is there one more wager is which I can believe?
we can drink ourselves to madness, lay our bodies on the floor
tomorrow we'll be rising, walking out the door
take a bullet in the heart, stagger up, stop and start
and still we'll cry for more
we are princes in the night,
blood brothers in this fight never growing old
we are diamonds, we are gold
bring me a drink so dark to take my memory away
bring me a song so stark and I'll hide myself today
bring me a horse so fast that he runs like black lightening
let me ride into the wind in a storm so frightening
I can stand up to the devil, play him poker-faced and strong
bluff him in a game of stud-cut him before long
I bet you heaven to hell, you'll never do as well
for I can do no wrong
we are princes in the night…
there was one night in this hall, there was a woman that I met
her eyes were blue, her hair was red, I never will forget
and then for o so many nights, she led me to her bed
I wasn't true, I lied to her and I walked away instead
On the edge of the town I met a spirit from the plains
Tell me, ancient one, why it is I'm in pain
In the dark I saw his eyes he said: you're not allowed to die
For all the hearts you've shamed
we are princes in the night,
blood brothers in this fight never growing old
we are diamonds, we are gold
we are diamonds, diamonds diamonds
we are gold...
