Life has little guarantees
Often with fleeting success
But I see a possibility
Of lasting love with you and me
Darling, I’ve got to confess
I think we can be a sure thing
What I’m feeling assures me
I can be so good for you
You’re perfect for me, too
Why don’t we quit the facades
And forget about the odds
I’m throwing caution to the wind
I’m so ready to begin
You’ve been dealt some real bad hands
You’re afraid to trust a man
Lady, just give me a chance
I want you to understand
You make me feel like a king
Let me love you as my queen
I want to give you everything
We can live the sweetest dream
Here I am, willing and able
I put my cards on the table
I’ll be walking on the sun
If you make me the one for you
It’s so clear, my dear
We both know the truth
If love is like a game
And we both feel the same
Then let’s play… for keeps
