Artist: dead can dance
Song: fortune
Album: Dead Can Dance
Year: 1984
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
