"Fortune" lyrics

"Fortune"

Judy, can't you look at me
Or take the opportunity to work it out?
You said you wanna bet on me
Then you say you think my luck is running out
It must have been a fantasy
I believed I was the only one

I thought I was a worldly man
But boy, I learned a thing or two when I met you
I wagered big, you took me down
"Ç'est tellement familier," it's like déjà vu
There's always been a part of me
Baby, that knew you'd run away

Fortune favors the prepared
Ready or not, you fall in love
Fortune favors the prepared
Are you prepared for a broken heart?
Fortune favors the prepared
(Ready or not)

You say you've had a tragic life
I could never understand just how bad you feel
It cuts you like a rusty knife
Circumvent the storm and let me take the wheel
There's always been a part of me
That's been waiting for the rain

Fortune favors the prepared
Ready or not, you fall in love
Fortune favors the prepared
Are you prepared for a broken heart
Fortune favors the prepared

I took for granted that you'd be here waiting
Why am I forsaken, while another fool abandons you?

Fortune favors the prepared
Ready or not, we all fall down
Fortune favors the prepared
Are you prepared for a second round?
Fortune favors the prepared
(Ready or not)
Fortune favors the prepared
Ready or not, you fall in love
Fortune favors the prepared
Are you prepared for a broken heart?
Fortune favors the prepared

(Ready or not)
Ready or not, you fall in love
(Ready or not)
Don't be afraid of a broken heart
