Lyrics
No one wants to live alone forever
No one desires to live in isolation indefinitely.
I was sweating in the autumn weather
I experienced perspiration despite the coolness of autumn.
Some are sitting on a bench together
Some individuals are seated together on a bench.
A letter written but not delivered
A written message that hasn't been sent.
I was dealt a bad hand maybe
I might have been given a disadvantageous situation.
Time to up the ante
It's time to increase the level of risk or commitment.
The stakes are high but
The potential gains or losses are significant.
I've got time to lose
Although the risks are high, I still have the luxury of time.
Someday we'll meet in the hills of the sun
In the future, we will rendezvous in a beautiful, serene place.
Let's make a bet if you're not with someone
Let's make a wager if you're not already in a relationship.
To be together and to fall in love
To unite and develop romantic feelings for each other.
I'll try my hardest not to mess it up
I will endeavor to not make mistakes in this endeavor.
I'm the holding cards so close to my chest
I keep my cards or intentions hidden.
Cause there's no point in being second best
There's no value in being second best in this context.
The game is unfair and too rich for my blood
The situation or competition is biased and beyond my means.
All bets are off when you're stuck in the mud
When you're stuck in an adverse situation, all previous agreements become invalid.
Raise the stakes
An emphasis on escalating the level of risk or commitment.
Raise the stakes
-Raise the stakes
-Raise the stakes
-I was dealt a bad hand maybe
I might have been given a disadvantageous situation.
Time to up the ante
It's time to increase the level of risk or commitment.
The stakes are high but
The potential gains or losses are significant.
I've got time to lose
Despite the high stakes, I still have the luxury of time.
