Lucky Ones

[Your Girl Lana 549]

Let’s get out of this town, baby we’re on fire
Everyone around here seems to be going down, down, down
If you stick with me, I can take you higher and higher
It feels like all of our friends are lost
Nobody’s found, found, found

I got so scared, I thought no one could save me
You came along, scooped me up like a baby

Every now and then the stars align
Boy and girl meet by the great design
Could it be that you and me are the lucky ones?
Everybody told me love was blind
Then I saw your face and you blew my mind
Finally, you and me are the lucky ones this time

Boy, get into my car, got a bad desire
You know that we’ll never leave if we don’t get out now, now, now
You’re a careless con and you’re a crazy liar
But baby, nobody can compare to the way you get down, down, down

I tried so hard to act nice like a lady
You taught me that it was good to be crazy

Every now and then the stars align
Boy and girl meet by the great design
Could it be that you and me are the lucky ones?
Everybody told me love was blind
Then I saw your face and you blew my mind
Finally, you and me are the lucky ones this time

Feels like, feels like, you know it feels like
Falling in love for the first time
Feels like, you know it feels like
Falling in love

Every now and then the stars align
Boy and girl meet by the great design
Could it be that you and me are the lucky ones?
Everybody told me love was blind
Then I saw your face and you blew my mind
Finally, you and me are the lucky ones this time

[LaSalle 37]

This song is amazing! I could listen to her in the car forever!

[Beautiful Loser 49,279]

These lyrics feel so Lizzy, I love the choruses. Makes me daydream that someday I'll find someone too.

[Paris Hilton 9,873]

This reminds me of October - December 2013! lovely song  one of my favorites from BTD

[Off To The Races 2010 demo pls 19,336]

Not the best song, but it's so fucking amazing and lyrically...

[salvatore 21,769]

i like the demo production x10 more, i don't hate hate it but it is forgettable, although it reminds me of cold, dark, fucking freezing desert mornings in december at like 4-6:30am when it's pitch fucking black out riding the public bus n sitting on shitty fabric seats n cold thing metal

 

 

like it definitely helped me n i have such memories for the song but they aren't v good n i can still feel the cold

 

luvluvluv the autotuned loons though

is this the only song she references a springsteen lyric? obviously she uses his name in other songs, but are there any other songs with his actual lyrics? 

[Tammy 2,291]

My favorite Lana song, forever!

[Hundred Dollar Bill 21,805]

A legendary song. & such a beautiful, majestic, cinematic, & thematically perfect ending to Born to Die.

[Cacciatore 19,347]

One of her best songs and her best album closer PERIODT

[Creyk 11,717]

One of her best songs and her best album closer PERIODT

Tied with Flipside but yes.

[Cacciatore 19,347]

Tied with Flipside but yes.

 

The Lucky Ones, Flipside and Get Free are all amazing closers but I think TLO has a special place with me because it was the first... idk how to explain but this makes it special to me (which is weird bc I don't like BTD song at all which was also a "first" in a sense but...)

[Hundred Dollar Bill 21,805]

Tied with Flipside but yes.

Technically The Other Woman is the closing track for UV, I believe Lana mentioned this around time of release? Something about how regardless of the bonus tracks, TOW was her own personal ending of that album thematically.

Nobody seems to give this song enough affection or attention… such a cute teen love story
