in the room where fortune falls
on a day when chance is all
in the dark of fierce exile (fears exile?)
i felt the grace of your smile

honey you're my lucky day
baby you're my lucky day
when i lost all the other bets i made
honey you're my lucky day

when i see strong hearts give way
to the burdens (burnings?) of the day
to the weary hands of time
where fortune is not kind

honey you're my lucky day
baby you're my lucky day
when i lost all the other bets i made
honey you're my lucky day

i've waited at your side
i've carried the tears you've cried
but to win darling you must play (pay?)
so don't hide your heart away

honey you're my lucky day
baby you're my lucky day
when i lost all the other bets i made
honey you're my lucky day
