Lucky charm from a fairground gate |
|
Just a souvenir from the midway man |
|
But it seemed to seal the guarantee |
|
That the blues would never bother me |
|
Don't let me lose my lucky charm |
|
That I keep in my pocket |
|
Just to hold the memory close to my heart |
|
Little charm I'd never be without |
|
'Cause it guards a love I dream about |
|
Don't let me lose my lucky charm |
|
I know it's just a useless little trinket |
|
And the game was rigged against me from the start |
|
For my little souvenir will soon be broken |
|
And I'll find myself with just a vacant heart |
|
Lucky charm, my only token |
|
To enhance the chance of loving again |
|
Just a silly game I choose to play |
|
'Cause I only let it slip away |
|
Don't let me lose my lucky charm |
|
I know it's just an old-time superstition |
|
But I keep it for the day the rain comes down |
|
'Cause I know that if I lose my only token |
|
That the clouds will come to swallow me back down |
|
Lucky charm |
|
'Cause it makes me happy |
|
And my fortune will be safe in your guard |
|
For as long as I can hold it out |
|
I have nothing left to cry about |
|
Don't let me lose my |
|
Don't let me lose my |
|
Don't let me lose my lucky charm |
|
Lucky charm, lucky charm |
