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 . . .
