The Greatest Gamble

There came a time in my life When a decision had to be made One that could and would change everything Which is why I was afraid I spent hour upon hour Thinking of the outcomes But I decided I was over-thinking So of that I was done Then I said I'd try something new I would listen to my heart And just hope that after this We wouldn't fall apart So when the moment was ripe And your hand I did caress I uttered those 4 little words Praying you'd say yes
