LUCK BE A LADY TONIGHT

I look in the mirror and here’s what I see

Someone familiar looking straight back at me

I’m looking at someone who’s down on their luck

And searching for ways to make it back up

For years I have done things I thought were the best

New things, and fast things I couldn’t resist

Once I knew true love, thought it wasn’t enough

And now what I’d give for some of that love

Chorus

The bright lights lured me, I couldn’t resist

I lived in the fast lane, I thought I knew best

But none of these things made my life alright

So luck, please I’m asking - be a lady tonight

Now I don’t need the fast lane, don’t need fancy cars

I don’t need the bright lights or frequent the bars

And I don’t miss the late nights, but I can’t get enough

Of the magic you gave me - that feeling of love.

Chorus

The bright lights lured me, I couldn’t resist

I lived in the fast lane, I thought I knew best

But none of these things made my life alright

So luck, please I’m asking - be a lady tonight

Talking…

So luck I’m asking you please

Be a lady tonight
