No such luck

J. Cunningham
(From the album, The Song Club)

If I could look beyond the horizon
And see all the settin’ and the risin’
But if there was no such thing as surprisin’
Then baby I would rather go blind

If the song of tomorrow rang out clear
Long before tomorrow appeared
Or if a new song should never touch my ear
Then baby I would lose the will to hear

But I’m happy from you
I’m happy for you
I’m happy with you
Darling I adore you
Out of the blue
Falling from above
There’s no such luck like love

If the colours and the flavours all expired
With only one taste left to savour and inspire
Or if there was only one hue to admire
Then baby I would lose all my desire

But I’m happy from you
I’m happy for you
I’m happy with you
Darling I adore you
Out of the blue
Falling from above
There’s no such luck like love

I never much believed in luck or fate
Just tried to live out every minute
like the hour was getting late
But life can be a game of chance
And if there’s someone you can dance with
Roll the dice
Take a stab
Take a long shot in the dark
You’re the surest bet I’ve known
And so I’m giving you my heart
If you’re a gamble then I’ll take it
If you’re a wager then I’ll make it
Spin the bottle
Spin the wheel
Take the hand
That love can deal
The stakes are high
And this could be a royal flush
There’s no such luck like love

But I’m happy from you
I’m happy for you
I’m happy with you
Darling I adore you
Out of the blue
Falling from above
There’s no such luck like love

You’re the rising up and going down
Of every single sun
You’re tomorrows melody
You’re the flavour on my tongue
You’re the colour of my heart
And you’ve fallen from above
There’s no such luck like love
There’s no such luck like love
