Every Hit is a Gamble

Can’t afford another trip down memory lane

The rocks I threw today all ended up in yesterday

Past the point of no return but still it lingers on

Echoes of a lost mind never letting go

People come and people go according to the flow

Some arrive unannounced pounding on your door

So save enough to keep the score and don’t regret the kiss

All those good old times I thought I never miss

So you live and learn

Die and forget it all

Every hit is a gamble down the line

You crash and burn

While you’re waiting for your turn

Every hit is a gamble down the line

In this town of ours the light never turns green

Red light holds me back from a place I’ve never been

Tell me where the action is I’m afraid I don’t know

Please point that gun away if it’s only for show

So you live and learn

Die and forget it all

Every hit is a gamble down the line

You crash and burn

While you’re waiting for your turn

Every hit is a gamble down the line

Every hit is a gamble down the line
