Rupert Holmes - Never the Luck lyrics

[Bazzard] Never the luck And never the lead And "never you mind", they say In time we all taste The lime in the light And I'll have my night someday Still, each precious part Seems over and done Before I've begun to speak. I cast out my line And keep my hand in But I'll not stand in this week Some starless night, they'll call towards the wings: "Who here dances and sings?" That's when yours truly springs And seeing me then, they will cry "Why he knows each line, and everyone's cue! We must let him do the part!" I'll leap center-stage The music will play I'll waltz my way into your heart! Tho' ever I plan And ever I plot With ever the pluck to try I wait for my star by fate to be struck - But never the luck have I... [Company] Ever the hope and ever he scheme And ever the dream! [Bazzard] But ever the dream have I!
