Fortunate Ones

I've seen faces turn into stone So many dreams you'll never explore I cried my heart out down in the city Don't go easy on me All the songs that could carry your name All the things that I could never explain It was never gonna be easy Don't go easy on me They will fade into fortunate colours With their fortunate lovers In their fortunate ways They will fly through their fortunate lives With their fortunate sons They're the fortunate ones There were nights we were falling apart I know you kept them close to your heart Don't let the lights go out in the city Don't go easy on me There were fights we could have ignored Times we turned our backs on the war It was never gonna be easy Don't go easy, babe They will fade into fortunate colours With their fortunate lovers In their fortunate ways They will fly through their fortunate lives With their fortunate sons They're the fortunate ones Now you are written in the stars And the rest of our lives don't mean nothing Let you heart of fire lead the way for us And one day I'll follow And we'll never let these times wither They will fade into fortunate colours With their fortunate lovers In their fortunate ways They will fly through their fortunate lives With their fortunate sons They're the fortunate ones Fortunate ones Fortunate ones
