Could It Be True Or 2 Good 2 Be

Could it possibly be real

For once in my life

Me my luck be in

In the right place at the right time

Or just another false dawn of hope

2 good 2 be true

This is after all

Me i am talking about

And historically 

All roads lead back to square 1

Tainted with disappointment

Because i should know better

And not to spend or count on
a single penny

Until the cheque has cleared
my bank account

And a little more later just
incase 

The bank goes bust or it is stolen
by thieves

And this isn't me feeling sorry for
myself

This is the most positive i have
felt in year's

Safe in the knowledge knowing it is bound to end in tears

Like it always seems to and does

Unless and this is a big maybe

Miracles really can occur 

And terminal bad luck does
eventually run out
