What it feels like to love somebody already in love with another man
Death and Pain seem glorious in a world where you're not near,
If I can never be with you then there's nothing left to fear.
My heart shouts out the three words I've never dared to say,
But it's too late; No apologies; Utter disarray.

These fond memories; Good times; the only cards I hold,
But they can't beat his aces; I think it's time to fold.
Life has no luck on this spinning roulette wheel,
It feels like you've been cheated; The hurt makes it real.

But I would take it all; The Pain, The Hurt, The Sorrow,
'Coz I don't care if I never get to see tomorrow,
So I will place my bets upon your twisted game of pain,
If I fail, by your hand will my love finally be slain.

But If I should win, then I shall claim the greatest prize,
No Money or Power; No desire to be Wise.
All I wish is to see that happy, joyful smile,
Not for long, just give me a short while.

Just being with you, seeing you; That's what keeps me strong,
My burning passion never stops; In your arms I belong.
But I just sit here patiently; All I can do is wait,
For love lasts forever, I just pray it's fate.
