Another Chance
Fellow gambler, take my hand;
I'm your friend, I understand.
I've known your guilt, your shame, remorse;
I've borne the burden of your cross.
I found a friend who offered ease.
He suffered, too, with this disease.
Although he had no magic cure,
He showed me how we could endure.
We talked together side by side.
We spoke of things we had to hide.
We told of sleepless nights and debts.
Of broken homes and lies and threats.
And so my weary gambler friend,
Please take this hand that I extend.
Take one more chance on something new:
Another gambler helping you.
