Gambling On Love

You are my addictive habit Your love comes--I have to grab it I really need an intervention Leading to a conversation About the way you hooked me in Now each day I'm gamblin' That my heart will never lose If you are the one I choose Luck was never on my side Each and every time I tried Taking a chance I'd never win Another love would not begin Each hand I tried would make me stumble The cards I stacked would only tumble Into one big useless pile I'd toss away into a file That my mind would not forget And my heart would soon regret Why can't I win at this game Maybe I'm the one to blame I do not know anymore Come on luck just let me score I need a love-- I will hold on Till my unlucky streak is gone
