Good Luck
Kris Allen ft. Lenachka Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What's wrong with me I'm going crazy, crazy
I'm not the type to lose control oh, oh
Something 'bout you got me thinking maybe, maybe
It's time for me to just let go, go, go

Didn't take that long for me to realize
You were just another kid tellin' lies
Good luck
Doing what you're doing
It's not me you're foolin'
You thought I'd never know
Good luck
You put on a good show
Had me in the front row
But now the curtain's closed
(Oh, oh, oh, hmm)
(Oh, oh, oh, hmm)

You keep saying that you miss me, miss me
While you're with another girl (no, no)
I can't believe I let you kiss me, kiss me
No time for games in my world

Didn't take that long for me to realize
You were just another kid tellin' lies

Good luck
Doing what you're doing
It's not me you're foolin'
You thought I'd never know
Good luck
You put on a good show
Had me in the front row
But now the curtain's closed
(Oh, oh, oh, hmm)
(Oh, oh, oh, hmm)
(Oh, oh, oh, hmm)
(Oh, oh, oh, hmm)

I should have known
I should have known
I should have known

Good luck
Doing what you're doing
It's not me you're foolin'
You thought I'd never know
Good luck
You put on a good show
Had me in the front row
But now the curtain's closed

Good luck
Doing what you're doing
It's not me you're foolin'
You thought I'd never know
Good luck
You put on a good show
Had me in the front row
But now the curtain's closed

(Oh, oh, oh, hmm) Keep doing you babe
(Oh, oh, oh, hmm) Because I'm alright




(Oh, oh, oh, hmm) Without you
(Oh, oh, oh, hmm)

I'm usually in control of myself

No time for games in my world
I don't have time for dishonesty or deception


I should have known
I should have seen the signs
