Lucky Man

I saw you first in the smoky café light
 Where I'd come in from the frozen winter night
 And I saw a face that put the stars to shame
 I loved you 'fore I ever knew your name
 And my heart sank, lost without a trace
 And it's a lucky man that gets to kiss your face
 I've seen you shine in the summer, spring and fall
 But it's winter when I love you best of all
 And I've seen you in the spotlight hard and bright
 And I've seen you in the shadows of the night
 And when I see you coming I can feel my cold heart race
 And it's a lucky man that gets to kiss your face
 I heard you singing to that empty hall
 And I heard the joy that echoed off the walls
 And I realized when all is said and done
 That youth is never wasted on the young
 And I don't believe the silence of this place
 And it's a lucky man that gets to kiss your face
