| I’m watching the water, watching the coast
|
| Suddenly I know what I want the most
|
| And I want to tell you, still I hold back
|
| I need some time, get my life on track.
|
| I know that look on your face
|
| But there’s somethin' lucky about this place
|
| And there’s somethin' good comin' for you and me Somethin' good comin' there has to be.
|
| And I’m thinking 'bout mama and about the kids
|
| And the way we lived, and the things we did
|
| How she never had a chance, never caught a break
|
| And how we pay for our big mistakes.
|
| I know so well the look on your face
|
| And there’s somethin' lucky about this place
|
| There’s somethin' good comin' just over the hill
|
| Somethin' good comin', I know it will.
|
| And I’m in for the long run wherever it goes
|
| Ridin' the river wherever it goes
|
| And I’m an honest man, work’s all I know
|
| You take that away, don’t know where to go.
|
| And I know that look on your face
|
| There’s somethin' lucky about this place
|
| There’s somethin' good comin' for you and me Somethin' good comin' there has to be. |
