Lucky

You got lucky mister 

Lucky when we met

Lucky in my perceptions 

Lucky in my depths 

Like a fortune in a cookie

Like a gambler at the table 

It’s all on the line 

And destiny’s unstable 

Peeling back the layers 

Getting to the heart 

Uncovering the mysteries 

Of all that’s deep and dark 

A meeting that was chance 

Odds a thousand to one 

You still came out on top 

Obscurity undone 

I Put you on the path 

And turned it all around 

Gave you a new insight 

Put your feet back on the ground 

When all is said and done 

I gave it all to you 

And what you take away 

Is more than what you knew 

Yah, you got lucky
