OA is Taylor Swift

The Lucky One
New to town with a made up name in the angel city

Chasing fortune and fame

And the camera flashes, make it look like a dream

You had it figured out since you were in school

Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool

So overnight you look like a sixties’ queen

Another name goes up in lights, like diamonds in the sky

And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one

Yeah, they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one

But can you tell me now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh...

Now it’s big black cars, and Riviera views

And your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you

And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page

And they tell you that you’re lucky

But you’re so confused

Cause you don’t feel pretty, you just feel used

And all the young things line up to take your place

'''Another name goes up in lights. You wonder if you’ll make it out alive'''

And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one

Yeah, they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one

Can you tell me now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh

It was a few years later, I showed up here

And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared

How you took the money and your dignity, and got the hell out

They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere

Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square

And it took some time, but I understand it now

‘Cause now my name is up in lights, but I think you got it right

Let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one

Let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one

Let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh

Yeah they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one

Yeah, they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one

And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh

Oh, whoa, oh, oh
