Waiting for My Lucky Day
Yearning for Fortune: Chris Isaak's Poignant Tale in 'Waiting for My Lucky Day'
Lyrics
I watched the sun roll down in Texas
I observed the sunset in Texas.
Out on the edge of town in Texas
On the outskirts of town in Texas.
I keep on hanging round in Texas
I persist in staying around in Texas.
Waiting for my lucky day
Anticipating a fortuitous moment in the future.
Lost everything I had in Texas
Experienced a loss of everything I owned in Texas.
A million dreams went by in Texas
A multitude of dreams passed by in Texas.
Sometimes the same life turns against us
At times, the same life turns unfavorable.
But I'm waiting for my lucky day
Despite setbacks, I am patiently waiting for a fortunate day.
I watch the sun go down, I keep hanging on waiting for the wind to change
Observing the sunset while enduring, hoping for a change in circumstances.
I watch the sun go down, and I keep hanging on, I know it's coming up again
Despite challenges, I anticipate a new beginning when the sun rises again.
The friends I had are all gone in Texas
The companions I once had are no longer present in Texas.
Sometimes you stand alone in Texas
Occasionally, one finds oneself standing alone in Texas.
Just when it all goes wrong in Texas
Especially when everything goes awry in Texas.
I'm waiting for my lucky day
Remaining optimistic and awaiting a stroke of luck.
I watch that sun go down, I keep hanging on, waiting for the wind to change
Continuing to endure as the sun sets, hopeful for a change in circumstances.
I watch the sun go down, and I keep hanging on, waiting for my luck day
Persisting through challenges, expecting a stroke of luck on the horizon.
Waiting for my lucky day, waiting, for my lucky day
A repeated expression of waiting for a fortunate day.
