LYRIC FOR SALE

By Patrick Cooney

Girl when I was with you life was so fun
Something inside told me you were the one
I always knew it was a long shot
Discounting pipedreams though I just never was taught

When I lost you I lost my heart and soul
Fallen deep into this dark black hole
There's really no need to console
Some things in life we just can't control

Thank you for showing me the way
If I just may I'll simply say
You're the best thing that ever happened to me

Roll of the dice, odds are against me
Rolling, down here on one knee
Lady luck never was on my side
Not to say that I never tried

Many things I've lost I once had in my grasp
Just a part of my colorful past
Taking chances not weighing the cost
My one true love I have now lost

Worldly riches don't mean a damn thing
Your love is what made me a king
But your inviting blue skies have turned gray
Once again my ego got in the way

It's so hard accepting your goodbye
Even though I have tried
To me you are worth fighting for

Roll of the dice, odds are against me
Rolling, down here on one knee
Lady luck never was on my side
Not to say that I never tried

Here I am once again rolling the dice
Even though I have been cold as ice
Think by now I'd have learned, paying a high price
To win your heart though I never would think twice

Roll of the dice, odds are against me
Rolling, down here on one knee
Lady luck never was on my side
Not to say that I never tried

Roll of the dice, seven come eleven
Roll of the dice, take me up to heaven
Roll of the dice, looking for the top prize
I'm rolling dice, always coming up snake eyes
