From the recording Along The Way (an 11 Track Album) . . . Hover Over Any Song Title To Pre-View a Track
Talk about the silver lining of a relationship gone bad ... this song will make you realize that just when you think your world's coming to an end with that last broken heart, the reality is ... you were given a golden opportunity to meet the right one next ... speaking to the fact that the one you thought was right for you was just, well, wrong! Sometimes something good comes out of something bad, but we just have to "wait for it".
This song was co-written with Texas songwriter, Troy McConnell, and Tim Smithson of Nashville, Tennessee.
Lyrics
LUCKY BREAK
WELL HE BROKE MY HEART WHEN HE SAID GOOD BYE
AND I SWORE I'D LAY RIGHT DOWN AND DIE
IT WAS JUST TOO MUCH FOR ME TO TAKE
I THOUGHT IT WAS A BAD BREAK
AFTER ALL THE HURT HE PUT ME THROUGH
I WAS A LUCKY GIRL WHEN I FOUND YOU
YEAH HE BROKE MY HEART BUT NOW I SEE
HOW IT TURNED OUT TO BE
MY LUCKY BREAK
NOW I UNDERSTAND IT WAS JUST THE HAND OF FATE
IT TOOK LOOSIN' HIM TO FIND YOUR LOVE
AND I CAN'T THANK HIM NEAR ENOUGH
FOR EVERY OUNCE OF PAIN IT TOOK TO MAKE
MY LUCKY BREAK
YOU'RE THE SWEETEST THING I'VE EVER KNOWN
AND I HAVE NEVER FELT A LOVE SO STRONG
I WAS SO SURPRISED TO FEEL THIS WAY
IN THE MIDDLE OF A HEARTACHE
BUT I WOULDN'T CHANGE THE WAY THINGS ARE
I JUST WANT TO THANK MY LUCKY STARS
NOW THAT I CAN CLEARLY SEE
HOW IT TURNED OUT TO BE
MY LUCKY BREAK
NOW I UNDERSTAND IT WAS JUST THE HAND OF FATE
IT TOOK LOOSIN' HIM TO FIND YOUR LOVE
AND I CAN'T THANK HIM NEAR ENOUGH
FOR EVERY OUNCE OF PAIN IT TOOK TO MAKE
MY LUCKY BREAK
