Lyrics

[Intro] (I bet, I bet my—) Ooh (I bet, I bet my—) Ooh (I bet, I bet my—) Ooh (I bet, I bet my—) Ooh [Verse 1] 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 (I bet, I bet my—) [Pre-Chorus] Now remember when I told you (I) That's the last you'll see of me? (I) Remember when I broke you down to tears? (I) (Oh-oh, oh; I bet, I bet my—) I know I took the path That you would never want for me (I) I gave you hell through all the years (I) [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] I've been around the world and never in my wildest dreams Would I come runnin' home to you (I bet, I bet my life) I've told a million lies (I), but now I tell a single truth (I) There's you in everything I do (I) (Oh-oh, oh-oh) [Pre-Chorus] Now remember when I told you (I) That's the last you'll see of me? (I) Remember when I broke you down to tears? (I) (Oh-oh, oh; I bet, I bet my—) I know I took the path (Ooh-ooh) That you would never want for me (I) I gave you hell through all the years (I) [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] (Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh) Don't tell me that I'm wrong (Ooh, ooh) I've walked that road before and left you on your own (Ooh-ooh-ooh) And please believe them when they say (Ah-ah) That it's left for yesterday and the records that I play (Ah-ah-ah) Please forgive me for all I've done [Chorus] 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 [Outro] (Eh-yeah) I, I bet my—, I bet my— (Oh, yeah) I bet my—, I bet my— I, I bet my life, I bet my life I bet my—
