Lyrics and translation

Original

Clasping your necklace

Zipping your dress

Hands on your waist

Kissing your neck

I love your body

I love your mind

They will change

So will mine, but you are

My best guess at the future

You are my best guess

If I were a gambling man, and I am

You'd be my best bet

Tracing your tan lines

Making you mine

If this doesn't work out

I'd lose my mind

And after a while

I will be fine

But I don't wanna be fine

I want you, you, you are

My best guess at the future

You are my best guess

If I were a gambling man, and I am

You'd be my best bet

Here is the church, here is the steeple

You were looking for saints, but you only found people

Ain't that just the way it goes?

I watched you fall from grace, you were graceful

After all, it's a small world

You may not be an angel, but you are my girl

You are my pack a day, you are my favorite place

You were my best friend before you were

My best guess at the future

You are my best guess

If I were a gambling man, and I am

You'd be my best bet (best bet)

You are my best guess at the future

You are my best guess (best guess)

If I were a gambling man, and I am (best bet)

You'd be my best bet (best bet)
