Casino Love
Friends tell you you're not ready
Dont jump in with both feet
They dont know really how you feel
Or what you truly need
They think they have the answers
They try to give advice
Say one day you'll love again
But just give it some time
You listen to their every word
And you know there being nice
You think you know what's truly best
So you decide to roll the dice
The first time that you start to play
You feel a love that grows within
A remembered joy of something new
That you think will never end
You want the love that you feel
To not come crashing down
You'll give all you have to play the game
So true love can be found
Then you realize they were somehow right
And that they knew just what to say
They had seen the future in the cards
But still you're glad you played
So now you go to just have fun
And Play the hand that you're delt
No worry for if you may lose
For true love will win out

But still you're glad you played
So now you go to just have fun
And Play the hand that you're delt
