Lucky
Sam and Quinn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A lone intersection clear
A truck coming out of nowhere
Made two spirits disappear
A heart's like a wheel
Every day is just the same
Until a pistol breaks the silence
Was that bullet mean for you?
Tripping across the ocean
Far beyond the whitecaps
They'd given up your seat
Cause you were running far behind
With your face against the glass
That plane it leaves without you
Moments later it crashed
Was it so or meant to be?
You are, you are the lucky one
The song “Lucky” by Sam and Quinn is a poignant and reflective piece that tells the story of two individuals who, in different circumstances, both found themselves to be the lucky ones. The opening lyrics describe an empty highway and a lone intersection, an eerie environment that sets the stage for the tragedy that unfolds as a truck emerges out of nowhere, taking two people's lives. The lyrics then contemplate the fragility of life, likening the heart to a wheel that turns day in and day out until a single unexpected event can break the silence and forever alter the trajectory of one's life. The lyrics then pivot to a different story of luck, that of a person who missed a flight that later crashed, leaving them to wonder if fate had intervened to keep them safe.
The message of the song is that life is unpredictable and that chance events, both good and bad, can shape our destiny. The lyrics celebrate the beauty of life while acknowledging its uncertainty and transience. Life is full of ups and downs, and the lyrics entreat the listener to cherish the good moments while recognizing that the bad ones are often beyond our control. Overall, the song communicates a deep sense of gratitude for the good fortune that comes our way.
Line by Line Meaning
Seemingly empty highway
The road seems to be deserted and lifeless
A lone intersection clear
There is a solitary crossing with no other vehicles or people in sight
A truck coming out of nowhere
Suddenly, a truck appears unexpectedly
Made two spirits disappear
The collision caused the loss of two lives
A heart's like a wheel
Emotions can be unsteady and unpredictable, similar to the movements of a spinning wheel
Every day is just the same
Life can become monotonous and repetitive
Until a pistol breaks the silence
Unexpected gunfire shatters the stillness
Was that bullet mean for you?
Were you the intended target of the bullet?
You are, you are the lucky one
You have been fortunate to avoid harm or danger
Tripping across the ocean
Travelling across the sea
Far beyond the whitecaps
Beyond the point where the waves break
They'd given up your seat
The airline gave away your reservation because you were late
Cause you were running far behind
You were delayed and not able to reach the plane on time
With your face against the glass
You watched the plane take off through the window
That plane it leaves without you
The aircraft departs without you on board
Moments later it crashed
The plane subsequently experienced a crash
Was it so or meant to be?
Was this simply an unfortunate coincidence or was it fated to happen this way?
You are, you are the lucky one
Despite the missed flight, you are fortunate to have avoided a potential tragedy

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh
