Lucky Number 7s (Live on KDRT)

I’ve been up and I’ve been down
I gave the devil a ride around
I’ve been sharp and I’ve been flat
I’ve looked ahead and I’ve looked back
I have waited for a sign
Invented meaning along the line
I passed out for days and nights
One day I hope to get it right
And make it to the other side

I searched for truth
I’ve told some lies
I’ve looked into the demons eyes
At times I’ve stumbled down the road
Unaware and all alone
I’ve tried to walk in others’ shoes
To understand the things they choose
But who’s to say it all depends
I’ve slandered and I’ve made amends
Tried not to look back again

But I know that she’ll be coming
Like those lucky number 7s
Lining up like dancers in broadway show
She can kick me when I’m falling
But soon she’ll come a calling
And I won’t have to run no more no more
No I won’t have to run no more

Because the best is yet to come I say
The best is yet to come
From the darkest nights come the brightest days
And the best is yet to come
I say the best is yet to come

I drank so much I couldn’t see
I’ve lived the life hypocrisy
Tried to argue my way out
I’ve played the devils advocate
I’ve torn apart some precious things
And tried to sew them back again
With duct tape and a pint of ale
I’ve woven quite a panicked tale
Searching for her holy grail

I have met some honest blokes
And I have run with lesser folk
Who took advantage of my heart
But in the end it was my fault
At times I should have walked away
I had the smarts I knew the way
Built some dreams on other’s clouds
But I’m fighting to somehow
Erase away this furrowed brow

But I know that she’ll be coming
Like those lucky number 7s
Lining up like dancers in broadway show
She can kick me when I’m falling
But soon she’ll come a calling
And I won’t have to run no more no more
No I won’t have to run no more

Because the best is yet to come I say
The best is yet to come
From the darkest nights come the brightest days
And the best is yet to come
I say the best is yet to come

And I know that she’ll be coming
Like those lucky number 7s
They’re lining up like dancers in a Broadway show
Yeah she can kick me falling
But soon she’ll come a calling
And I won’t have to run no more no more
No I won’t have to run no more

Because the best is yet to come I say
The best is yet to come
From the darkest nights come the brightest days
And the best is yet to come
I say the best is yet to come

And I know that she’ll be coming
Like those lucky number 7s
They’re lining up like dancers in a Broadway show
Yeah she can kick me falling
But soon she’ll come a calling
And I won’t have to run no more no more
No I won’t have to run no more
