Tim O′Brien - Heartbreak Game

Текст песни Heartbreak Game

It′s not as if I didn′t know better, her innocent look and a scented letter
It looked like love but it felt like a memory
Sometimes a young girl wants a ticket out
and a gambler on a roll looks good no doubt
But if you think you′re winnin′ you don′t even know the game you′re in

Chorus:
It′s read ?em and weep, it′s a sad old song
You take your chances just the same
Don′t it serve me right how it all went wrong
Bettin′ on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game
Bettin′ on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game

It′s not as if she never loved me, but times get rough and the rooms get lonely
And a girl learns fast that there′s a lot of different things called love
I got burned bad but I′m still in this game
It′s a dirty deal but nobody′s to blame
The odds are good lady luck will be back again

Chorus

Bridge:
Sometimes you gotta bet your aces low
Sometimes you gotta let a good hand go

Chorus 2x

Bettin′ on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game
