Luckier Man

So many years the last time I knew

The smell of your hair, the way that you move

A crack in the glass would kill me at last

If I were a luckier man

My hearing's no good, fingers grown old

Too numb to feel, too tired to hold

But here in my chair I'll soon feel your stare

If I were a luckier man

I waste eternity watching the walls

And wait for my luck to change

With open eyes I compromise

Watching every moment escape

And so I persist, and still I remain

A part of you once, that will never change

But a star's gravity could bring you to me

If I were a luckier man
