The Lucky One Lyrics

New To Town With A Made-up Name
In The Angel’s City
Chasing Fortune And Fame
And The Camera Flashes
Make It Look Like A Dream

You Had It Figured Out
Since You Were In School
Everybody Loves Pretty
Everybody Loves Cool So Overnight
You Look Like A ’60s Queen

Another Name Goes Up In Lights
Like Diamonds In The Sky

And They’ll Tell You Now
You’re The Lucky One
Yeah, They’ll Tell You Now
You’re The Lucky One
But Can You Tell Me Now
You’re The Lucky One?
Oh, Oh, Oh

Now It’s Big Black Cars And Riviera Views
And Your Lover In The Foyer
Doesn’t Even Know You
And Your Secrets End Up
Splashed On The News Front Page

And They Tell You That You’re Lucky,
But You’re So Confused
’cause You Don’t Feel Pretty,
You Just Feel Used
And All The Young Things
Line Up To Take Your Place

Another Name Goes Up In Lights
You Wonder If You’ll Make It Out Alive

And They’ll Tell You Now
You’re The Lucky One
Yeah, They’ll Tell You Now
You’re The Lucky One
Can You Tell Me Now
You’re The Lucky One?
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

It Was A Few Years Later
I Showed Up Here
And They Still Tell The Legend Of
How You Disappeared
How You Took The Money
And Your Dignity
And Got The Hell Out

They Say You Bought
A Bunch Of Land Somewhere
Chose The Rose Garden
Over Madison Square
And It Took Some Time,
But I Understand It Now

’cause Now My Name Is Up In Lights
But I Think You Got It Right

Let Me Tell You Now,
You’re The Lucky One
Let Me Tell You Now,
You’re The Lucky One
Let Me Tell You Now,
You’re The Lucky One
Oh, Oh, Oh

Yeah, They’ll Tell You Now,
You’re The Lucky One
Yeah, They’ll Tell You Now,
You’re The Lucky One
Let Me Tell You Now,
You’re The Lucky One
Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh-oh, Oh-oh
