Aces Lyrics - Singles - Carole Bayer Sager

(Carole Bayer Sager / Bruce Roberts) 

Keep your aces up your sleeve 

When the temperature's rising 

And the air's getting harder to breathe 

And remember when to leave 

Without leaving traces 

Only a child leaves his footprints all around 

Not caring if he's found out loud 

And only a fool or a child shows his hand 

Oh how I wish I was one of them again 

One of them 

Take your lovers as they come 

Don't get too involved 

Attachments are problems that can't be solved 

And remember its a show 

A ring with no net 

And don't you forget no one will catch you when you fall 

They've all got to cope with their own 

Only a fool or a child bears his soul 

Oh haw I thank them for giving me some hope 

For giving me some
