The Lucky One Lyrics - Red - Taylor Swift

New to town with a made up name in the angel city 

Chasing fortune and fame. 

And the camera flashes, make it look like a dream. 

You had it figured out since you were in school. 

Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool. 

So overnight you look like a sixties' queen. 

Another name goes up in lights, like diamonds in the sky. 

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one. 

Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one. 

But can you tell me now, you're the lucky one. 

Now it's big black cars, and Riviera views 

And your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you 

And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page.

NEW SONG: Taylor Swift - 'Lover' - LYRICS 

Prime Day concert by Amazon Music will be headlined by Taylor Swift 

And they tell you that you're lucky. 

But you're so confused 

Cause you don't feel pretty, you just feel used. 

And all the young things line up to take your place. 

Another name goes up in lights. 

You wonder if you'll make it out alive. 

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one. 

Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one. 

Can you tell me now, you're the lucky one, oh, oh, oh. 

It was a few years later, I showed up here. 

And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared 

How you took the money and your dignity, and got the hell out. 

They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere 

Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square 

And it took some time, but I understand it now.

'Cause now my name is up in lights 

but I think you got it right 

Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one. 

Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one. 

Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one, oh, oh, oh. 

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one. 

Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one. 

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one, oh, oh, oh. 

Oh, whoa, oh, oh.
