Goo Goo Dolls - Lucky Star lyrics

If I could walk a straight mile,<br>I could write it down in shorthand, I could show you.<br>If you want me to.<br>And if I had an hourglass,<br>I'd save the grains of time I spent with you<br>That's what I'd do.<br>But I remember, you always said it could be great.<br>And I knew it could be.<br>Well there's a way you look at things,<br>That no one needs to know but you.<br>And you shared it with me.<br>Like every time the leaves would fall,<br>You promised me that they'd be back again.<br>And I believed in you.<br><br>You always said it could be great.<br>But I had no time too waste, now it seems that I've come too far.<br><br>As bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star.<br>Bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star.<br><br>Written down in hard-bound books,<br>The way things used to be, they ain't for me.<br>I'd swear they're all for you.<br>We said sugar, gramps said shoot,<br>Her mom said shit, I don't know what she'll do.<br>As if it's up to you.<br><br>As bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star.<br>Bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star.<br>Your lucky star will burn ya.<br>Your lucky star will turn you 'round.<br>They're gonna turn you around
