Lottery

They tell you not to roll the dice
When you're playin with your own life
I saw you and I didn't think twice
Probably should have told you goodbye
But you kissed me in the middle of the street
And you didn't care that people were watching
I knew that nothing ever comes free
But under that sky, it didn't stop me
The night we met I thought I won the lottery
I thought that I held everything that I wanted to hold
Spending the night with you alone
The night we met my life was how it ought to be
I should have known that even winning the lottery
Would leave you broke
Broke, broke
They say you shouldn't go all in
When you're betting odds you can't win
But I'd do it all over again
Even though I know how it ends
The night we met I thought I won the lottery
I thought that I held everything that I wanted to hold
Spending the night with you alone
The night we met my life was how it ought to be
Would leave you broke
I should have held on tight but I cashed it in
And I still reach out for your hands on my skin
Cause now I know what it should have been
You and me like kings and queens
On your rolled up couch rolling in our dreams
The night we met I thought I won the lottery
I thought that I held everything that I wanted to hold
Spending the night with you alone
The night we met I thought I won the lottery
I thought that I held everything that I wanted to hold
Spending the night with you alone
The night we met my life was how it ought to be
I should have known that even winning the lottery
Would leave you broke
Did we win that lottery or was it just robbery
Guess I know what love is now
But I don't know why it's got to be hard
You're happy without me and I'm broke so I break down
But I know what love is now
