Oh what can I do to keep my will strong I've tacked on so many solos to this old song Can't help but notice the music fade This is the deal we made I have been inspired in ways I never dreamed of Defined and redefined daily the word love Soon I'll leave the sun for the cool blue shade This is the deal we made As these years go by, I get what I'm here for I can see through the drops of the downpour And I'm not yet through with the hand I've played You can tell me to fold, but for now I'll stay I know the deal we made Yeah this is the deal we made
