The Lucky One Lyrics

Last night he left me for some other girl

Who's younger than our daughter and pretty as a pearl

A family of fortune, she's funny, smart, and thin

And I can't help but wonder what she sees in him

I'm not gonna get angry. The damage is already done

And I'm already thinking that I am the lucky one

He makes everything harder than it needs to be

He's got a thousand ways to make a fool of me

But this time it's all different, now I see the light

Out on the horizon beyond this lonesome night

I don't wanna get even, cause when it's all said and done

I get the feeling that I am the lucky one

The autumn leaves turn for fear of winter's breath

And flaunt their secret beauty with pageantry in death

Like them, I will fall to land on solid ground

I might get swept away. I might just blow around

I don't know where I'm going, but I know where I'm coming from

And I already know that I am the lucky one

I am the lucky one
