Gamble With the Wind

Life is full of chances But the number is not known, Careful steps and sideward glances Voice our fear of the unknown. You've never played this game before You do not know the rules, Ant through each hand you’ll learn to name The aces and the fools. So when you reach the road that split And grapple with your doubting mind, You roll the dice of guess and wit And gamble with the wind. Life is full of choices But the answers have been blurred And the world, the world of voices, They will echo to be heard. The sky is never clear to see Beyond each menial task, And so allusive destiny Approach you with a mask. So when you've drawn your lot, advice And once more, unsure, glance behind, You take a breath and roll the dice You gamble with the wind. This table had been worn with scars Its players left behind, Where gamblers gambled through the years The gamble of the wind. So think before you cast the dice And blindly draw the blind’s advice For there will be a price. Before you listen to the voice And take the chance and make the choice, Before you guess you have to see Your bet is your eternity So think before your name is signed, Before you gamble, gamble, gamble, gamble Gamble with the wind.
