Gamble

I think you knew it was a gamble 

To give your heart to me. 

To present me with a diamond, 

To treat me like a queen. 

'A red rose for the lady,' 

You thought you could be king. 

But I'm sorry Jack, I never thought 

You'd wager everything. 

I said you were an ace, 

I said we were a pair. 

Too bad you never saw my cards, 

Saw only jokers there. 

You've seen your hand and placed your bet,

You'll try to win me like the others. 

But I am, you know, the Ace of Spades, 

A loner, not a lover. 

I think you knew it was a gamble 

To bet it all on me. 

You know I only play to win, 

I only deal for victory.
