I TOOK A GAMBLE  LYRICS

 I TOOK A GAMBLE

Songwriter  JOHN HARVEY

I took a gamble and lost all I had
But I"m glad I tried
I'd made no advances by taking no chances
And standing aside

So I took a gamble and told her goodbye
And lost all I had at her side
Though we spent many years together
It didn't mean we were living right

I took a gamble when everyone told me
That I wasn't right
That I would be sorry and back in a hurry
To cry at her side

But I took a gamble and told her goodbye
And lost all I had at her side
But I've found a greater love now
And the gamble was worth the try
