Gambler’s Life

[Verse 1]
I've lived a life of good times
Money and women came my way
But I always lost in both
'Cause all streaks turn cold someday

[Verse 2]
And then here come the bad times
But when they come they never stay
Because I leave it all behind
The diamonds in the night sky light my way

[Chorus 1]
That's the way it goes
In this life we chose
My heart is with this life
Though it cost me everything

[Verse 3]
Fear of loss, it keeps you
Stuck in some place you don't want to stay
But I've lost it all and come back many times
I'll never be afraid

[Chorus 2]
That's the way it goes
In this life we chose
You've got to take a chance
If it costs you everything

[Chorus 3]
That's the way it goes
In this gambler's life
This is what we chose
So I'll roll the dice
