Robert Plant - Pledge Pin

****
Watch them go
'Cause one by one, they rise to fall
Hearts in tow
It's just a game, she's only having fun

****
She laughs and turns away
Surprised, she mocks it all the same
Tonight's the loss, tomorrow's gain
And in the end, it's so
Oh!

****
Stand in line
As one by one, they march in time
In the wing
Stand and watch these foolish things go by

****
Just preparing for the play
Aloof, she moves
The confidante with practiced step
Maribel, she executes her role, role

****
As the cavalcade begins to thin
Do you stop and look around?
Free to choose, but not to win
You're just too late, your show is at the end

****
Now you're the victim of your game
Through your fingers, watch them slip
Familiar rules just hit and miss
For the one who never shows

[Instrumental Outro]
