lyrics

Close your eyes
Slip away
In this hazy old world which we live
Too many problems and there's no solutions
and no outrunning them now

You put on your brave face
But you're scared as hell
And I'll pray that it'll come right
We've been down for so long
But we've always held on
'cause we've gotta get lucky sometime

Let the angels sing out the old gospel songs
Of rock'n'roll's sweet redemption
We'll keep our heads low
And baby who knows
'cause we've gotta get lucky sometime

We have walked through these streets
Stained in blood and tears
Some tough cards were handed
And though we're still standing
The good times, they weren't good to us

Every sweet kiss carried a tear
They streamed from your deep hazel eyes
I'll dry those tears baby
'cause god knows but maybe
We're gonna get lucky sometime

Let the angels sing out the old gospel songs
Of rock'n'roll's sweet redemption
We'll keep our heads low
And baby who knows
'cause we've gotta get lucky sometime
The diamonds of heaven slip from the night
Deep into the glint of the bright city lights
We'll keep holding and it won't be long
'til we're gonna get lucky sometime

Open the blinds
Reveal the sun
Out of these shadows a new world will come
Keep faith in you heart and open your eyes
God only knows we're gonna get lucky sometime
