Fun - The Gambler

Slow down,
we've got time left to be lazy
All the kids have bloomed from babies into flowers in our eyes.
We've got 50 good years left to spend out in the garden
I don't care to beg your pardon,
We should live until we die.

We were barely 18 when we'd crossed collective hearts.
It was cold, but it got warm when you'd barely crossed my eye.
and then you turned, put out your hand,
and you asked me to dance.
I knew nothing of romance, but it was love at second sight.

I swear when I grow up, I won't just buy you a rose.
I will buy the flower shop, and you will never be lonely.
Even if the sun stops waking up over the fields
I will not leave, I will not leave 'til it's our time.
So just take my hand, you know that I will never leave your side.

It was the winter of '86, and all the fields had frozen over.
So we moved to Arizona to save our only son
and now he's turning to a man, although he thinks just like his mother,
he believes we're all just lovers he sees hope in everyone.

And even though she moved away,
we always get calls from our daughter.
She has eyes just like her father's
they are blue when skies are grey.
And just like him, she never stops,
Never takes the day for granted,
works for everything that's handed to her,
Never once complains.

You think that I nearly lost you
When the doctors tried to take you away.
But like the night you took my hand beside the fire
30 years ago to this day
You swore you'd be here 'til we decide that it's our time
Well it's not time, you've never quit in all your life.
So just take my hand, you know that I'll never leave your side.
You're the love of my life, you know that I'll never leave your side.

You come home from work and you kiss me on the eye
You curse the dogs and say that I should never feed them what is ours So we move out to the garden, look at everything we've grown
and the kids are coming home
I'll set the table
You can make the fire.



Yavas ol tembellige zamanimiz var
Gozlerimizin onunde butun cocuklar tomurcuktan cicege donustu
Geride bahcemizde yasayacagimiz Elli guzel yilimiz var
Affina siginmiyorun
Olene kadar yasamaliyiz

Kalplerimiz birlestiginde anca onsekizindeydik
Have soguktu ama gozlerimiz kesistiginde isindim
Sonra Sen elini uzatip dansa Davet ettin
Romantizm hakkinda hic bir sey bilmiyordum ama ikinci gorusteki askti

(Sen)Yemin ediyorum buyudugumde sana gul degil gul dukkani alacagim
Sen asla yanliz kalmayacaksin
Gunes tarlalarin uzerine dogmasa bile Ben gitmeyecegim
Zamanimiz gelene (olene) kadar gitmeyecegim
Sadece elimi tut biliyorsun Ben her zaman senin yanindayim (dedin)

86 nin kisiydi ve butun araziler donmustu
Bizde biricik oglumuzu korumak icin arizonaya tasindik ve simdi o Adam oluyor ve nerdeyse ayni annesi gibi dusunuyor
Hepimizin Sevgi dolu olduguna ve icimizde Umut olduguna inaniyor

Kiz uzaga tasinsada
Kizimiz her zaman ariyor
Kizin gozleri sema gri oldugunda Mavi tipki babasi gibi
Ve babasi gibi hic durmuyor
Hic bir gunu garanti gormuyor ve sikayet etmeden elinden geldigi kadar calisiyor

Doctorlar seni gotirdugunde seni kaybettigimi mi sandin
30 sene once atesin arkasinda elimi tutup olene kadar burda olcagina yemin ettigin gibi
Simdi zamani degil
Sen hayatin boyunca hic pes etmedin
Sadece elimi tut
Biliyorsun Ben seni asla birakmam
Sen hayatimin askisin
Biliyorsun seni asla birakmam

isten eve gelip beni gozlerimden optun ve kopeklere lanet okuyup onlara bizim olan hic bir seyi vermemem gerektigini soyledin sonra bahcemize gecip yetistirdiklerimize baktik.cocuklar eve geliyor Sen atesi yak Ben sofrayi hazirlayim
