shaina taub - o luck outrageous lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there’s an old cathedral on second avenue
tightly pressed between two buildings
the stained gl-ss peeking past bodegas
it is as you are to me:
a thing of ancient beauty glowing among the pallor

[pre-chorus]
i walk by it and feel a heavy lightness rising in my shoes
and every stranger is an angel for a second in ordinary glory ,singing:

[chorus]
o luck outrageous
o pain courageous
o cheerful, fearful life

[verse 2]
there’s an old piano in washington square
a baby grand upon the concrete
concertos for the b-ms and tourists
it is as you are to me:
a thing of ancient beauty ringing amidst the clamor

[pre-chorus]
i walk by it and feel a heavy lightness rising in my ear
and every stranger is an angel for a second in ordinary glory, singing:

[chorus]
o luck outrageous
o pain courageous
o cheerful, fearful life

[bridge]
i descend to the subway as the local arrives
and i hear the west side story minor seventh singing in the rails
it is as we are to me, it is as we are to me:
a broken, searching symphony
a lover’s plea for memory
ringing, singing:

[chorus]
o luck outrageous
o pain courageous
o agile, fragile soul

[outro]
o luck outrageous
o love contagious
o cheerful, fearful
o cheerful, fearful
o cheerful, fearful life
