Dreaming of a Jackpot

The cards are on the table I cannot walk away Fortune's tide will come by morning The winds of luck will blow by morning Don't call, don't even bother Cause all I wanna do is play And fortunes tide, it comes by morning But the house will win the day The gamblers twitch is in my sleeve Because I'm hiding secret luck And the wheel's spinning wildly The dice go flailing wildly I'm a man of many hobbies But the carosel is stuck And the dice just keep on spinning But they never spin enough And the jackpot in the morning It takes the house upstream I chase it! Boldly swimming! But I'm drowning for a dream Kyle Kriticos
