I Bet My Life

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

Well I'm just a 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 knew I took the path

That you would never want for me

I gave you hell through all the years

So I, I bet my life

I bet my life, I bet my life for you

I, I bet my life

I bet my life, I bet my life for you

I've been around the world

And never in my wildest dreams

Would I come running home to you

I've told a million lies, but

Now I tell a single truth

There's you in everything 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 knew I took the path

That you would never want for me

I gave you hell through all the years

So I, I bet my life

I bet my life, I bet my life for you

I, I bet my life

I bet my life, I bet my life for you

Don't tell me that I'm wrong

I've walked that road before

And left you on your own

And please, believe them when they say

That it's left for yesterday

And the records that I play

Please forgive me for all I've done
