Lucky Me
Yearning for Love's Elusive Touch
Lyrics
There must be thousands of people out there
Expressing the abundance of people searching for love.
Who search for love and find more than their share
Some find more love than they expected or deserved.
They seem to fall into it naturally
Some individuals effortlessly encounter love.
But you know that doesn't apply to me.
The speaker feels that this natural occurrence doesn't apply to them.
Some fools (some fools) get lucky
Referencing those who find love easily as "lucky fools."
The first time out take a chance on love and they win
Some people succeed in love on their first try.
But some fools like me, they never learn
The speaker, a "fool," doesn't learn from past experiences in love.
They keep on playin' the game
Continuing to engage in the pursuit of love.
And it turns out the same
Despite efforts, the outcome remains unchanged.
Oh, when will it ever be lucky me?
Expressing a desire for luck in love to finally come their way.
I got that butterfly feeling inside
The speaker experiences a nervous and excited feeling.
With you I knew that love had fin'lly arrived
With the person addressed, the speaker thought true love had arrived.
Now like all the rest you say goodbye
Similar to others, the love interest says goodbye, causing heartache.
Leavin' me alone to keep wondering why.
The speaker is left alone, pondering the reason for the departure.
Some fools (some fools) get lucky
Reiteration of the theme of fortunate individuals in love.
The first time out take a chance on love and they win
Some find success in love from the beginning.
But some fools like me, they never learn
Despite past experiences, the speaker continues without learning.
They keep on playin' the game
Continuing to play the game of love, with consistent outcomes.
Though it turns out the same
The repeated disappointment in love is emphasized.
Oh, when will it ever be
Expressing the ongoing hope for a change in luck in love.
Oh my heart aches impatiently
The speaker's heart aches as they wait impatiently for love.
Oh when will it ever be lucky me?
Reiterating the longing for luck in love to finally arrive.
When will it ever be lucky me?...
Repeating the question, emphasizing the ongoing uncertainty in love.
