The Gambling

 
 

You gamble away my love, my love

There is no more excuse I find above

On the ground-

my hope has drowned

Every day ends with a no for me

I'm still not your priority

You promise to come back

and walk away

and walk away

You gamble away our love, my love

There is no more excuse I find above

On the ground-

my hope has drowned

You always build up expectations –

I collapse, just need vacations

Why are you so hard on me

I cannot see

I cannot see

Do I really know your heart?

Do I really know your heart?

I know your heart

I know your heart

You gamble away our love, my love

There's no more excuse I find above

On the ground -

my hope has drowned

Wanted you close, no need for fame

You play your game, I stay the same

You hate to have doubts

they turn around

they turn around

You gamble away our love, my love

There's no more excuse I find above -

On the ground

my faith has drowned
