lyrics

If you’re thinkin I’ll blow it
In less than a year
Wanna bet?
Wanna bet?
I’ll stake my life savings
That I’ll still be here
In a year
Eye to eye with you
I’ll still belong to you
I’m never certain of anything certain
I Can’t help but see the man
Behind the curtain
But I’ve never believed in anything
So damn much

If you’re saying my heart’s
Gonna change in five years
Wanna bet?
Wanna bet?
I’ll stake our first child
That I’ll still be here in five years
Eye to eye with you
I’m so alive with you
I always scoff
At magical thinkin
I much prefer cold hard facts
And hard drinkin
But I’ve never wanted anything
So damn much

Oh, my my
Oh, my love, la de lie
Oh, my my
My love, oh my my

If you think 60 years
Is too long a time
Wanna bet?
Wanna bet?
If you think that two souls
Can not love for that long
Grow your jaded ass up
And know that you’re wrong
Because 60 years is
Not nearly enough
I’m tellin you, darlin
My life ain’t too much
And I’ve never cared for anyone
So damn much

No I’ve never loved anyone
So damn much
