Fortuneteller lyrics

Cast your eyes into the crystal

Deep inside the mystery

Is that a vision of a lonely man

I fear it looks a lot like me

Is that a man without a woman

Whose empty life is but a shell

Empty hearts will echo

Forever in the wishing well

Fortuneteller

You've got to help me find an end to the nightmare

'Cause I can't stand this pain and the curse of time

Somewhere in your eyes I'll find the answer

Give me the truth I've been looking for

Be my guiding light, I'll take my chances

Turn the card, seal my fate, close the door

Some days come with a vengeance

Some days I feel so bad

The mirror holds no secrets

I lost the best thing that I had

Fortuneteller

Can you help me to see, is there an end to the sorrow

Or was this slow ride to nowhere always meant to be

Somewhere in your eyes I'll find the answer

Give me the truth I've been looking for

Be my guiding light, I'll take my chances

Turn the card, seal my fate, close the door

She always taking more than she'd need

But we were both to blame somehow

In the heat of the moment I told her to leave

I guess I lost more than I found

But I remember...
