Optimistically speaking You could say the odds are a million to one Of you and me ever winning When all is said and done I don't mean to seem downhearted Nor do I want to spoil the fun But there's no way the two of us could stay On this side of the sun All the bets that we were placing When lady luck would never smile And all the horses we were racing From the furlong to the mile Crazy nights in some casino And all those hands we could have won Let's try to pick up all the pieces On this side of the sun Jack o' Diamonds was a traitor The Queen of Hearts was but a child To save the Aces up for later In the land of Kings and Jokers Wild Russian Roulette or a round of Poker Pontoon Blackjack or Twentyone Losing time and getting broker On this side of the sun We can only do what we are able Before the music starts Throw our cards on the table The Ace of Spades or the Jack of Hearts We don't need to beg or borrow So let's not go and jump the gun The time is ours until tomorrow On this side of the sun |
