Fortunate girls, on whom the stars shine
For whom they realign
In spectacular patterns
Which I saw suddenly, clearly, once you stepped into view
After every disaster, am I finally a fortunate girl, too?
A fortunate girl…
I never knew what I was made up of
Until push came to shove
And I stumbled to you
Where I slipped shudderingly
Out of a chloroform-haze
Into the warmth of your invigorant-gaze
And I saw suddenly, clearly, once you stepped into view
After every disaster, am I finally a fortunate girl, too?
You draw me outward, into focus
You don’t notice my flaws, you don’t seem to wonder…
Fortunate girls have hearts that still may break
It would be a mistake
To pretend they never do
But the past began to vanish when you stepped into view
After every disaster, at long last, I’m a fortunate girl, too
