I Bet My Life lyrics

I know I took the path that you would never want for me

I know I let you down, didn’t I

So many sleepless nights where you were waiting up on me

Well I’m just a slave unto the night

Now remember when I told you that’s the last you’ll see of me

Remember when I broke you down to tears

I know I took the path that you would never want for me

I gave you hell through all the years

So I, I bet my life

I bet my life

I bet my life on you

I, I bet my life, I bet my life

I bet my life on you

I’ve been around the world

And never in my wildest dreams

Would I come runnin’ home to you

I’ve told a million lies but now I'll tell a single truth

There’s you in everything I do

Now remember when I told you that’s the last you’ll see of me

Remember when I broke you down to tears

I know I took the path that you would never want for me

I gave you hell through all the years

So I, I bet my life

I bet my life

I bet my life on you

I, I bet my life, I bet my life

I bet my life on you

Don’t tell me that I’m wrong

I’ve walked that road before

Left you on your own

Please believe them when they say

That it’s left for yesterday

In the records that I play

Please forgive me for all I’ve done

So I, I bet my life

I bet my life

I bet my life on you

I, I bet my life, I bet my life

I bet my life on you
