The Fool Who Let Her Go

You think you’re one lucky dude
I used to be luckier than you
But good fortune is a fickle friend
Though your sun is shining now
You must always remember how
What goes up always goes down again

Chorus:
Lady luck was my companion
Until the day I set her free
Just because she didn’t come back
Don’t mean it wasn’t meant to be
I’ve never been good at staying
I’ve always been quick to the road
I was the only one she wanted
Now I’m just the fool who let her go

You think you’ve got what I want
I’m not going to tell you that you don’t
But I’ve walked that winding road you’re on
And though those were such good times
I couldn’t stay between the lines
I strayed too far and ended up alone

So don’t worry about me
Because I’m just an old memory
One I’m sure she barely can recall
But once you’ve fallen in love
It’s a hard thing to fall out of
I wonder if she thinks of me at all
