《The Gambler》歌词

[00:00:00] The Gambler (赌徒) - Fun. (欢娱乐队)

[00:00:09] Slow down,

[00:00:11] We've got time left to be lazy

[00:00:13] All the kids have bloomed from babies

[00:00:16] Into flowers in our eyes.

[00:00:18] We've got 50 good years

[00:00:21] Left to spend out in the garden

[00:00:23] I don't care to beg your pardon,

[00:00:26] We should live until we die

[00:00:35] We were barely 18

[00:00:38] When we'd crossed collective hearts.

[00:00:40] It was cold, but it got warm

[00:00:43] When you'd barely crossed my eye.

[00:00:45] And then you turned, put out your hand,

[00:00:47] And you asked me to dance.

[00:00:50] I knew nothing of romance,

[00:00:52] But it was love at second sight

[00:00:55] I swear when I grow up,

[00:00:58] I won't just buy you a rose.

[00:01:02] I will buy the flower shop,

[00:01:05] And you will never be lonely.

[00:01:09] Even if the sun stops waking up over the fields

[00:01:13] I will not leave,

[00:01:15] I will not leave till it's our time.

[00:01:19] So just take my hand, you know

[00:01:21] That I will never leave your side

[00:01:33] It was the winter of '86,

[00:01:35] And all the fields had frozen over.

[00:01:38] So we moved to Arizona to save our only son

[00:01:42] And now he's turning to a man,

[00:01:45] Although he thinks just like his mother,

[00:01:47] He believes we're all just lovers

[00:01:50] He sees hope in everyone

[00:01:52] And even though she moved away,

[00:01:54] We always get calls from our daughter.

[00:01:57] She has eyes just like her father's

[00:01:59] They are blue when skies are grey

[00:02:02] And just like him, she never stops,

[00:02:04] Never takes the day for granted,

[00:02:07] Works for everything that's handed to her,

[00:02:09] Never once complains

[00:02:12] You think that I nearly lost you

[00:02:19] When the doctors tried to take you away.

[00:02:26] Like the night you took my hand

[00:02:30] Beside the fire

[00:02:33] 30 years ago to this day

[00:02:41] You swore you'd be here till

[00:02:42] We decide that it's our time

[00:02:45] But it's not time,

[00:02:46] You've never quit in all your life.

[00:02:50] So just take my hand, you know

[00:02:53] That I will never leave your side.

[00:02:59] You're the love of my life,

[00:03:02] You know that I will never leave your side

[00:03:35] You come home from work

[00:03:38] And you kiss me on the eye

[00:03:40] You curse the dogs you say

[00:03:41] That I should never feed them what is ours

[00:03:45] So we move out to the garden

[00:03:48] Look at everything we've grown

[00:03:50] And the kids are coming home

[00:03:52] So I'll set the table

[00:03:56] You can make the fire.
