Unlucky

Unlucky the tears I shed Are not for love and joy Unlucky I was born premature And delivered as a baby boy Unlucky I didn’t know better Until you were two feet out the door Unlucky I won’t be the man To vow “till death do us part” Unlucky I’m not Usain Bolt And lost the race to win your heart Unlucky I’m not Mohammed Ali Cause I lost the fight before the start Unlucky I’m not Romeo And I lost the role to play the part Unlucky there’s no remote control To rewind to the time it was better Unlucky there are no time machines To travel back to the day I met her Unlucky I can’t fool reality And restart to the way we used to be Unlucky I can’t rewrite history Unlucky me
