If I'm lucky, you will tell me that you care,

That we'll never be apart . . .

If I'm lucky, this will be no light affair,

It's forever, from the start . . .



If I'm lucky, there'll be moonbeams all around,

Shining bright as day . . .

You will hold my hand and you'll understand,

All I cannot seem to say . . .



If I am lucky, there will be a time an' place

You will kiss me, we'll embrace . . .

In that moment, every wishful dream I ever knew

Will come true . . .



If I'm lucky, I will go through the years with you . . .



< instrumental break >



If I am lucky, there will be a time an' place

You will kiss me, we'll embrace . . .

In that moment, every wishful dream I ever knew

Will come true . . .



If I'm lucky, I will go through the years with you . . .
