"How You Play The Hand"

I know that it's true sometimes life's hard

It's touch or it's go at the turn of the heart

Somehow love survives the only way it can

Well, it's not the cards we're dealt, it's how you play the hand



Darlin', each day turned in to each year

We've held each other through hopes and through fears

Every turn life takes me near the best of that we can

I'm still in love with you and how you play the hand



Baby, what it takes is just an open heart

Sounds a little foolish but it's the only place to start



Baby, what it takes is just an open heart

Sounds a little foolish but it's the only place to start



I know that it's true sometimes love ends

There's no guarantees whenever it begins

Baby, I bet all I have on you and me again

'Cause I still believe that love is how you play the hand

Oh, it's not the cards we're dealt, it's how you play the hand
