Betting On You

Whoever said 
That life is a bet?
You roll the dice hard
I shuffle the cards
With no way of knowing 
What will be showing
Some take the first hand
Others wait, pay the band
I’m betting on you
You call your hand too
Our hearts they are matching 
Other suits all are lacking 
You say “oh that’s ducky”
But I know we’re lucky
