Love Is A Gamble Songtext / Lyric

Back when I was still in school

I got taught as a rule

That my heart could always fool my head

So I tripped and fell a lot

Learning what true love was not

Till one evening Mama said we ought to talk



She said love is a gamble

It's a chance that you take

You lay your heart down

And you bet it won't break

You bet your sweet dreams

Won't get tattered and torn

But when that happens

You must shake off those blues

Just remember you've got nothing to lose

But you've had true love since the day you were born

Since the day you were born






Then she told me all she knew

About what makes true love true

And it hasn't much to do with heat

Young hearts race and then grow still

Passion cools and always will

But a river just keeps filling up the sea



You see love is a gamble

It's a chance that you take

You lay your heart down

And you bet it won't break

You bet your sweet dreams

Won't get tattered and torn

But when that happens

You must dream up some more

When you find it you'll have seen it before

But you've had true love

Since the day you were born



Love is a gamble

It's a chance that you take

To lay your heart down

And you bet it won't break

You bet your sweet dreams

Won't get tattered and torn

But when that happens

You must shake off those blues

And just remember you got nothing to lose

You've had true love

Since the day you were born

Since the day you were born
