Story Behind The Song
It's an archetypal story.
Just when we think we'll never meet the right person,that person turns up.
Old love is lost, then new love is found. Simples!

Lyrics
LUCK WALKED OUT
INTRO
My day didn't start with any fun at all.
I felt that life had said, this time you'll take the fall.
I've never let love sweet love get in my way,
Until you came along and now it's here to stay.
VERSE 1
Luck walked out, then you walked in.
And I said to myself this time I win.
All those things I've promised myself,
All those words - left on the shelf,
Cos when luck walked out, you walked in.
VERSE 2
You walked in as luck walked out.
You're what dreams of love are all about.
I felt I was caught in a spin,
But don't you know that's how it begins.
Cos you walked in as luck walked out.
BRIDGE
Yes, I know you'll say you've heard it all before,
But this is the real thing - you can't ask for any more.
I can hear you say, where does it end or begin?
Only we know the truth, and the truth is deep within.
VERSE 3
Now happy days are here at last.
That lonely loser is in the past.
They said it could never be,
But you see the difference in me,
Cos luck walked out but you walked in.

FINISH
Yes, luck walked out, you walked in.
Luck walked out, you walked in.
Luck walked out, you walked in.
