The Unlucky One

I always held my breath going over bridges
And clutched onto countless rabbits feet
Watching you from modest distances
Just wishing again that we would meet

And one night on a random Tuesday
Again my wildest dream was real
In the same bar we were drunk with love
And your heart was mine to steal

But all those pennies I threw in the well
And every birthday candle I ever blew
I tell you just how badly I want us to be together
And you reply "what the hell else is knew?"
