jade bird - lottery (acoustic) lyrics
[verse 1]
i was 19 and you were 23 and
we stayed in number 4 ferdinand street
we spent five talking about our lives
but we’d talked like that about a thousand times
and i’m bored of all that
[chorus]
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’ll play it anyway
are you still betting on me?
[verse 2]
i’ll tell you about a guy
that i’ve been with
and you ask “how old as he?”
and i laugh “26”
“nah but he’s thirty
how messed up is that?”
“oh, forget it” he says
“i’m a jealous man
and i don’t want to talk about that”
[chorus]
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
are you still betting on me?
[bridge]
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–
[chorus]
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
are you still betting on me?
baby
