All Or Nothing
For once in my life,
I know not what to do.
Smart enough to say no,
Yet, my heart, it beats for you.
I know it all too well.
This story's got a tragic end.
But with you, it's all or nothing.
So, a farewell I shall send.
I want nothing but to have you.
But fear has got its hold.
I've never had a winning hand.
It makes much more sense to fold.
My stomach, full of knots.
and shaking head to toe,
I want you more than anything,
but I've got to let you go.
