New to town with a made up
name in the angel city,
Chasing fortune and fame.
And the camera flashes, make it
look like a dream.
u had it figured out since you
were in school.
Everybody loves pretty, everybody
loves cool.
So overnight u look like a
sixties’ queen.
Another name goes up in lights,
like diamonds in the sky.
And they’ll tell u now, you’re
the lucky one.
Yeah, they’ll tell u now, you’re
the lucky one.
But can u 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 u that you’re
lucky.
But you’re so confused,
Cause u 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.
u wonder if you’ll make it out
alive.
And they’ll tell u now, you’re
the lucky one.
Yeah, they’ll tell u now, you’re
the lucky one.
Can u tell me now, you’re the
lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
It was a few years later, I
showed up here.
And they still tell the legend of
how u disappeared,
How u took the money and
your dignity, and got the hell out.
They say u 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 u got it right,
Let me tell u now, you’re the
lucky one.
Let me tell u now, you’re the
lucky one.
Let me tell u now, you’re the
lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
And they’ll tell u now, you’re
the lucky one.
Yeah, they’ll tell u now, you’re
the lucky one.
And they’ll tell u now, you’re
the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, whoa, oh, oh.

I'd never gone with the wind
Just let it flow
Let it take me where it wants to go to
u open the door
There's so much more
I've never seen it before
Always trying to fly
But I couldn't find wings
But u came along and u changed everything
[Chorus:]
u lift my feet off the ground
u spin me around
u make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I am lost in your eyes
u make me crazier, crazier, crazier
I've watched from a distance as u made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know how that would feel
And u made it so real
u showed me something that I couldn't see
u opened my eyes
And u made me believe
[Chorus]
Baby u showed me what living is for
I don't wanna hide anymore
Oh oh
u lift my feet off the ground
u spin me around
u make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm fallin' and I am lost in your eyes
u make me crazier, crazier, crazier
Crazier, crazier, crazier
Just let it flow
Let it take me where it wants to go to
u open the door
There's so much more
I've never seen it before
Always trying to fly
But I couldn't find wings
But u came along and u changed everything
[Chorus:]
u lift my feet off the ground
u spin me around
u make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I am lost in your eyes
u make me crazier, crazier, crazier
I've watched from a distance as u made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know how that would feel
And u made it so real
u showed me something that I couldn't see
u opened my eyes
And u made me believe
[Chorus]
Baby u showed me what living is for
I don't wanna hide anymore
Oh oh
u lift my feet off the ground
u spin me around
u make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm fallin' and I am lost in your eyes
u make me crazier, crazier, crazier
Crazier, crazier, crazier
Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty
Is the face in the mirror looking back at you
u walk around here thinking you're not pretty
But that's not true, cause I know you...
[Chorus:]
Hold on, baby, you're losing it
The water's high, you're jumping into it
And letting go... and no one knows
That u cry, but u don't tell anyone
That u might not be the golden one
And you're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone
I guess it's true that love was all u wanted
Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket
But he leaves u out like a penny in the rain
Oh, cause it's not his price to pay
Not his price to pay...
[Repeat Chorus]
You're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone... oh
Goodbye, baby
Goodbye, baby
With a smile, baby, baby
Is the face in the mirror looking back at you
u walk around here thinking you're not pretty
But that's not true, cause I know you...
[Chorus:]
Hold on, baby, you're losing it
The water's high, you're jumping into it
And letting go... and no one knows
That u cry, but u don't tell anyone
That u might not be the golden one
And you're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone
I guess it's true that love was all u wanted
Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket
But he leaves u out like a penny in the rain
Oh, cause it's not his price to pay
Not his price to pay...
[Repeat Chorus]
You're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone... oh
Goodbye, baby
Goodbye, baby
With a smile, baby, baby
