Fortune Lyrics

From ancient times to the present day
There have been those who have claimed her as a lover
So driven by the will to possess
Have pursued it to the very ends of the earth

We enter into it, it enters into us
We enter into it, it enters into us
As the wheel spins and turns from the words I seem to have learned
We enter into it, it enters into us

Fortune smiles upon our heads
Mistakenly we cling to the wall and wait
How we believe we seem to forgive and forget
Immersed in the security of our view of our world

There are those of you among us
Barren waiting places and empty skies

Their fates have already been decided upon
They will leave behind them only victims of their misplaced trust

We enter into it, it enters into us
We enter into it, it enters into us
As the wheel spins and turns from the words I seem to have learned
We enter into it, it enters into us

Fortune smiles upon our heads
Mistakenly we cling to the wall and wait
How we believe we seem to forgive and forget
Immersed in the security of our view of our world

Fortune smiles upon our heads
Fortune smiles upon our heads

From ancient times to the present day
There have been those who have claimed her as a lover
So driven by the will to possess
