The Lucky One - Acoustic Hits

New in town with a made up name in the Angel 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 sixties' 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

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

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

Yeah

And they'll tell you now you're the lucky one

Yeah they'll tell you now you're the lucky one

And they'll tell you now you're the lucky one
