I know I took the path that you would never want for me
I know I let you down, didn't I
So many sleepless nights where you were waiting up on me
But I'm just the slave unto the night
Now remember when I told you that's the last you'll see of me
Remember when I broke you down to tears
I know I took the path that you would never want for me
I gave you [bad word] through all the years

So I, I bet my life
I bet my life
I bet my life on you
I, I bet my life
I bet my life
I bet my life on you

I've been around the world and never in my wildest dreams
Would I [bad word] home to you
I've told a milion lies but now I tell a single [bad word] There's you in [bad word] I do
Now remember when I told you that's the last you'll see of me
Remember when I broke you down to tears
I know I took the path that you would never want for me
I gave you [bad word] through all the years

So I, I bet my life
I bet my life
I bet my life on you
I, I bet my life
I bet my life
I bet my life on you

Don't tell me that I'm wrong
I've walked that road before
And left you on your own
And plese believe them when they say
That it's left me yesterday
And the records that I play
Please forgive me
For all
I've done

So I, I bet my life
I bet my life
I bet my life on you
I, I bet my life
I bet my life
I bet my life on you

I,
I bet my
I bet my
I bet my
I,
I bet my life
I bet my life
I bet my life on you
