[Verse 1]
Can you relieve me, baby?
Take your heart from your sleeve
And put it on the line
Put it right here beside mine
I can't seem to read you
Most of the time
Don't you know that I need you?
Will you ever be mine?

[Chorus]
Love is a gamble
I knew it from the start
Whoever is holding the cards
Please deal me the king of hearts
Please deal me the king of hearts

[Verse 2]
If you came to my door
And you asked me for more
I'd lay down beside you
I'd never deny you
And if I had lots of silver
I'd give some to you
And if I had lots of gold
I'd make a rich man of you
[Chorus]
Every time I see you
I want to fall in love again
I would like to free you
But you won't even let me in
You won't even let me in

[Verse 1]
Can you relieve me, baby?
Take your heart from your sleeve
And put it on the line
Put it right here beside mine
I can't seem to read you
Most of the time
Don't you know that I need you?
Will you ever be mine?

[Chorus]
Love is a gamble
I knew it from the start
Whoever's holding the cards
Please deal me the king of hearts
Please deal me the king of hearts
