I was 19 and you were 23 We stayed in number four Ferdinand Street We spent five talking about our lives But we'd talked like that about a thousand times And I'm bored of all that You used to tell me that love is a lottery and You got your numbers and you're bettin' on me You used to say that love is a game, but You got your numbers and you're bettin' on me I tell you about a guy that I've been with, you ask how "Old is he?," and I laugh, "26, no but-" He's 30! How messed up is that? "Well forget it" he says "I'm a jealous man and I don't want to talk about that" You used to tell me that love is a lottery, but You got your numbers and you're bettin' on me You used to say that love is a game, but You got your numbers and you're bettin' on me Are you still bettin' on me Hold on, my dear hold on real tight It's just a numbers game in my mind And we've been here A thousand times, a thousand times, a thousand You used to tell me that love is a lottery, but You got your numbers and you're bettin' on me You used to say that love is a game, but You got your numbers and you'll play it any way You used to tell me that love is a lottery, but You got your numbers and you're bettin' on me You used to tell me that Love is a lottery, but You got your numbers and you're bettin' on me Are you still bettin' on me?
