Luck Never Travels Alone

Luck Never Travels Alone [Spoken Intro] "Every gambler asks for luck... Few ever wonder who keeps score. But every riverboat carries two sisters. One fills your pockets. The other empties your pride." --- Verse 1 (Fortune) I walked aboard where the river bends, With a silver smile and a deck to lend. Dice grew warm in a weathered hand, Gold bloomed up from a losing man. Champagne laughter, velvet air, Everybody swore I led them there. When fortune sings they all believe, Luck's a thing that they can keep. --- Verse 2 (Consequence) I never hurry, never shout, I simply wait till the lights burn out. One quiet glance across the room, Can turn applause to silent gloom. No anger sleeping in my eyes, Only truth beneath disguise. Every mountain casts a shade, Every debt gets somehow paid. --- Chorus Luck never travels alone. Every crown still weighs like stone. One hand deals, One hand calls, Every winner hears both voices through these halls. Roll the bones, Spin the wheel, Nothing borrowed stays for real. Love may bless, Pride may fall... Luck never travels... Never travels... Alone. --- Verse 3 (The Gambler) I kissed the queen and cursed the ace, Thought the river knew my face. Every bottle, every bet, Bought tomorrow with regret. Then two shadows crossed the floor, Like they'd walked these decks before. One just smiled... One bowed her head... Neither spoke a single word. --- Verse 4 (Fortune) Don't mistake my gifts for grace, I only open up the race. Every dream deserves a try, Every bird was born to fly. Take your chances while you can, Build your castles in the sand. I was never meant to stay... I'm the dawn... Not the day. --- Chorus Luck never travels alone. Every crown still weighs like stone. Raise your glass, Take your turn, Every lesson has a fire that still must burn. Hold your cards, Count your gold. Nothing here was yours to hold. Love may bless, Pride may fall... Luck never travels... Never travels... Alone. --- Bridge Fortune Raise your glass... The night's still young... Consequence Every song... Is finally sung... Together The river never remembers names, Only echoes, smoke and flames. Every captain... Every king... Leaves without a single thing. Shuffle hearts... Shuffle spades... Watch the moonlight count the days. One pours hope... One pours rain... Still we dance... Again... Again... (Instrumental break with piano, fiddle and pedal steel.) --- Verse 5 (Consequence) I don't come to steal your smile, Only weigh it for a while. Every promise... Every lie... Learns beneath another sky. When the last chip leaves your hand, You'll finally understand. She gave wings to all your dreams... I taught where to land. --- Final Chorus Luck never travels alone. Every heart must journey home. One lifts high... One stands near... Both have walked beside you every single year. Roll the bones... Hold your breath... Every birth still dances with death. Raise your glass... Hear the call... Luck never travels... Never travels... One gives tomorrow... One gives truth... Both were with you... From your youth. The river rolls... The lanterns fade... Every fortune... Must be weighed. Luck never travels... Never travels... Alone. --- [Spoken Outro] Fortune: "I'll see you at your next beginning." Consequence: "And I'll be waiting at the end." Together: "Until then... enjoy the river."
