Love's Gamble: Embracing Life's Long Shots
Lyrics
I've been out here waiting
I have been patiently waiting.
For someone like you to come along
Anticipating the arrival of someone like you.
Been on my knees praying
I've been praying while on my knees.
For some reason to keep me strong
Seeking a reason to keep me emotionally strong.
Doesn't matter if your mine or not
Regardless of your relationship status with me.
Your walking proof of what he's got in stock
You are living proof of the qualities he possesses.
Though my chances are not too hot
Recognizing that my chances are not high.
That's ok Its probably...just a long shot
Accepting the possibility that it might just be a difficult endeavor.
People keep saying
Others suggest that I've been waiting for too long.
You've been waiting far too long
Ignoring those opinions and persevering.
I pay them no attention
Disregarding negative comments and staying focused.
I just keep on keep in' on
Continuing to persist despite challenges.
Doesn't matter if your mine or not
Regardless of your relationship status with me (repeated).
Your walking proof of what he's got in stock
You are living proof of the qualities he possesses (repeated).
Though my chances are not too hot
Recognizing that my chances are not high (repeated).
That's ok Its probably... just a long shot
Accepting the possibility that it might just be a difficult endeavor (repeated).
You know you make me wanna, throw, my hands in air
Expressing the desire to celebrate and thank the Lord for answered prayers.
Thank the Lord he answered my prayer
Feeling grateful when seeing your beautiful face, reminiscent of divine grace.
Every time I see your pretty face, reminds me of his amazing grace
Your appearance serves as a reminder of God's amazing grace.
You got to play to win and know when to play
Emphasizing the importance of taking risks in order to succeed.
But you can't let the long shots scare you away
Cautioning against letting challenging opportunities deter you.
I'm here for good if you want me to stay
Expressing commitment to staying if wanted, but not being the one who leaves.
But I won't be the one that got away
Asserting the intention not to be someone easily lost.
Doesn't matter if your mine or not
Regardless of your relationship status with me (repeated).
Your walking proof of what he's got in stock
You are living proof of the qualities he possesses (repeated).
Though my chances are not too hot
Recognizing that my chances are not high (repeated).
That's ok Its probably...
Accepting the possibility that it might just be a difficult endeavor (repeated).
The chance of winning lottery
Comparing the situation to the slim chance of winning the lottery.
But I don't want to be a long shot
Expressing a desire not to be a risky or uncertain option.
