Lucky In Love
Castro Tommy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Turns her back when it's my turn to play
But I'm lucky in love
I'm so lucky in love
Never had much luck with the dice
I like to play but can't pay the price
Oh I'm lucky, baby
I'm so lucky
Lucky in love
Tried to turn a buck I got nothin' to show
Keep buying high, selling low
But I'm lucky in love
I'm so lucky in love
I don't need to play the horses
My good fortune comes from better sources
I'm lucky now
Lucky in love
So lucky, yea
Lucky in love
It comes to lovin' I'm no beginner
In my baby's arms you know that I'm a winner
In lovin', I'm such a lucky man
When I hold my baby
I hold a winnin' hand
I got a roof that leaks, a floor that squeaks
A car that breaks down every two or three weeks
But I'm lucky
Lucky in love
I'm lucky now, baby
I'm lucky in love
That's what I am
I'm so lucky
I'm lucky in love

He feels that he has hit the jackpot with his significant other and that being with her is the best prize he could ever ask for. Tommy seems to be grateful for the good things that have come his way, and he expresses his contentment with his current situation, which indicates a certain level of humility.
Furthermore, the song is about how love has brought meaning to his life and how lucky he feels to have found true love, even if everything else isn’t going so well. The message is relatable to many people because it suggests that, despite the struggles we face in life, we can still find happiness in the small things that matter, like love. Love has the power to turn things around, and that is precisely what Castro Tommy is celebrating in "Lucky in Love."
