Shall we play the gambler’s game?
I’ll wager my heart
You’ll bet the sparkle in your eyes
And we’ll meet
at an illicit table
scattered with cards of chance
How many times will luck side with me
so I can bet again
without losing my heart
Come, let’s gamble
I’ll buy you a glass of wine
so you can get drunk
while I stand still
watching the moon
stagger across the sky
But come
let’s rewrite the rules of the game
No bets
No wine
We tear up the cards of fate
and my heart
returns to me
carrying your eyesThen we meet
at a table that’s finally ours
And I’ll say to you
I love you
