tim obrien – heartbreak game lyrics
it’s not as if i didn’t know better, her innocent look and a scented letter
it looked like love but it felt like a memory
sometimes a young girl wants a ticket out
and a gambler on a roll looks good no doubt
but if you think you’re winnin’ you don’t even know the game you’re in
chorus:
it’s read â‘em and weep, it’s a sad old song
you take your chances just the same
don’t it serve me right how it all went wrong
bettin’ on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game
bettin’ on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game
it’s not as if she never loved me, but times get rough and the rooms get lonely
and a girl learns fast that there’s a lot of different things called love
i got burned bad but i’m still in this game
it’s a dirty deal but n-body’s to blame
the odds are good lady luck will be back again
chorus
bridge:
sometimes you gotta bet your aces low
sometimes you gotta let a good hand go
chorus 2x
bettin’ on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game
