Lyrics

You can break away or you can stay You choose your life, you're free to fly Go on and fly Go on and fly She had it in her all the time To get away and try to find Somewhere to go, to run She saw the world through open eyes And never let a soul inside Don't come too close, so close Baby thinks she's smart, but what about her heart? Like a wild bird of prey, like a thief in the night You can take what you want, and you don't think twice 'Cause the world's in your hands, you got all you want And you won't change a thing, you're the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Her soul was strong, her heart was tough And when she felt she had enough She tore herself away Love in the dark is all you see Get what you want, not what you need You look the other way Never letting on to what it's all become Like a wild bird of prey, like a thief in the night You can take what you want, and you don't think twice 'Cause the world's in your hands, and you've got all you want And you won't change a thing, you're the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Life is a dream, the lucky one, the lucky one, the lucky one Oh, life is a dream, the lucky one Life is a dream, the lucky one, the lucky one Baby thinks she's smart, but what about her heart? Like a wild bird of prey, like a thief in the night You can take what you want, and you don't think twice 'Cause the world's in your hands, and you've got all you want And you won't change a thing, you're the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one Oh, the lucky one
