about

The original version before the hatchet job by William Orbit who dumbed down the song with the label against my wishes, with explanation that the original version was too over everyone's heads and made it complicated for them to translate the value of the song in European board meetings at the time they would tell me that nobody was interested in my words only hearing me sing. This was recorded on 26 June 2003 at The Leonard Hotel in Marble Arch, London where William had a couple of rooms turned into a studio.

lyrics

Dice

Looking Away From The Sky
I Am Rolling The Dice

Infinitesimal Nefarious Diminuendo
Ingratiating Player Hating In The End No
Intoxicating About Survival Of A Beautiful Perfume
Heliocentric Mellifluous Graceful Coordination

Explore Her I Feel This
See More Of The Realest
Aurora Australis Aurora Borealis

I Was Crying Over You
I Am Smiling I Think Of You

Where You Gardens Have No Walls
Running Waters And Rippling Brooks

I Am Returning To The Place
Where The Wind Blows Tearing Through The Heather
Misty Morning And Waterfall
Breathe In The Air If You Care You Compared Don’t Say Farewell

Nothing To When You Roll The Dice And You Swear Your Love’s For Me
Nothing To When You Roll The Dice And You Swear Your Love’s For Me

Virtuous Sensibility
Escape Velocity

Nothing To When You Roll The Dice And You Swear Your Love’s For Me
Nothing To When You Roll The Dice And You Swear Your Love’s For Me

And She Don’t Know If She Can Keep It Together Forever

Explore Her I Feel This
See More Of The Realest
Aurora Australis Aurora Borealis
