Lyrics
When I see you lying thereLike a living answered prayerThere are no wordsFor what I feel for youMy life was once a high trapezeYou pulled me downAnd gave me peaceThat’s something no one elseCould ever doAnd on nights like tonightIt scares me recallingHow close I came to fallingBut fools get luckyFortune must like meWhen people ask where you came fromI tell themFools get luckyDestiny likes meIt must be one of nature’s rulesLove like yoursShould save the fools like meWhen I see the good times shineOn this wayward life of mineI tell the worldIt’s all because of youAnd fools get luckyFortune must like meWhen people ask where you came fromI tell themFools get luckyDestiny likes meIt must be one of nature’s rulesLove like yoursShould save the fools like me
