Lottery

Текст песни Jade Bird - Lottery

I was 19 and you were 23 and
We stayed in Number 4 Ferdinand Street
We spent five talking 'bout our lives
But we’d talked like that about a thousand times
And I’m bored of all that
You used to tell me that
Love is a lottery
And you got your numbers
And you’re betting on me
You used to say that
Love is a game
But you got your numbers
And you’re betting on me
I’ll tell you about a guy
That I’ve been with
You ask «How old is he?»
And I laugh, «26»
«Nah, but he’s 30
How messed up is that?»
«Oh, forget it» he says
«I'm a jealous man
And I don’t want to talk about that»
You used to tell me that
Love is a lottery
But you got your numbers
And you’re betting on me
You used to say that
Love is a game
But you got your numbers
And you’re betting on me
Are you still betting on me?
Hold on, my dear
Hold on real tight
It’s just a numbers game
In my mind
And we’ve been here a thousand times
A thousand times
A thousand-
You used to tell me that
Love is a lottery
But you got your numbers
And you’re betting on me
You used to say that
Love is a game
But you got your numbers
And you’ll play it anyway
You used to tell me that
Love is a lottery
But you got your numbers
And you’re betting on me
You used to tell me that
Love is a lottery
But you got your numbers
And you’re betting on me
Are you still betting on me?
