I'll bet on you baby Until the day I die I'd say let's get married But that made you cry
I'll bet on you darlin' Til the day we part But I hope that I kick first cause it'd break my little heart
I'll bet on you sweetheart Like a game of cards And if I lose my hand I'm sure it's worth the charge To love and to loss Is worth the cost So I'm wagering forever just to be in your arms
I'm playing with fire In the sense I feel warm And I swear to fucking God I'll weather the storms
I'm running the numbers And counting the days Until you tack on my made up last name
If this won't convince you To take on the part My piano's already wearing your name in a heart
If this overwhelms you And you fade away Just please be kind I see my scar every fucking day
You stitched up my forehead And made my house home Now every chair I sit in it feels just like a throne
My words fail me daily To show where I stand But Good God! Took on new meaning when you tattooed it on my hand
I'm playing with fire In the sense I feel warm And I swear to fucking God I'll weather the storms I'm running the numbers And counting the days Until you tack on my made up last name
