1000 Stars Lyrics - Big Country

Now we play our final hand 

Move in closer, understand 

This time like never before 

Only the black queen scores 

A card so high and so wild 

We should burn it 

The luck of a thousand stars 

Can't get me out of this 

The luck of a thousand stars 

Losing its charm 

There are people I have loved 

Hypnotized by lies 

In defensive disguise 

Some say protect and survive 

I say it's over 

The luck of a thousand stars 

Can't get me out of this 

The luck of a thousand stars 

Losing its charm 

Hold me through the darkest night 

I feel secure in your arms 

While all the city's on fire 

It's not between you and me 

But we are losing 

The luck of a thousand stars 

Can't get me out of this 

The luck of a thousand stars 

Can't get me out of this 

The luck of a thousand stars 

Losing its charm
