Fortune

don't listen to what they tell you
how much time must pass
the choice is always yours my friend
how long for you it lasts

everyone thinks they know best
they don't mind sharing it with you
instead of letting you forget
what means the world to you

take the time that's needed
but don't stay lost too long
fortune may smile upon you
if you haven't forgotten the song
