Barry Manilow

Fools get lucky

When I see you lying there
Like a living answered prayer
There are no words
For what I feel for you
My life was once a high trapeze
You pulled me down
And gave me peace
That's something no one else
Could ever do
And on nights like tonight
It scares me recalling
How close I came to falling
But fools get lucky
Fortune must like me
When people ask where you came from
I tell them fools get lucky
Destiny likes me
It must be one of nature's rules
Love like yours
Should save the fools like me

When I see the good times shine
On this wayward life of mine
I tell the world it's all because of you
And fools get lucky
Fortune must like me
When people ask where you came from
I tell them fools get lucky
Destiny likes me
It must be one of nature's rules
Love like yours
Should save the fools like me
