Luck and Strange Song Lyrics, David Gilmour
Home / Pink Floyd Lyrics / Luck and Strange Lyrics / David Gilmour new album lyrics
In the light before the dawn
Shadows snake in my peripheral
Mesmerise me, bring it on
Heart beats with fear here in the theatre of my soul
You see, I hope it will go on and on
And when the curtain call is done
Morning always comes
It was a fine time to be born
De-mob happy street and free milk for us all
it was the right place to be sure
Those dreaming spires and, yeah, oh so pastoral
But let’s hope its not just luck and strange
A one-off peaceful Golden Age
That’s a dark thought in the dark
Seek what you won’t find that is a wasted life
Ore so the Ancients dropped by to tell me
They drank me dry but my oh my so far…
Quite the time to be a boy
Six-string masters of an expanding universe
It was a high time to be sure
Soaring and free from the bounds of the Earth
But let’s hope its not just luck and strange
A one-off peaceful golden age
That’s a dark thought in the dark
Time for this mortal man to love the child that holds my hand
And the woman who smiles when I embrace her
These eyes stay dry but my oh my guitar…

This is David’s 5th solo album after a long pause since the last one. It will be toured but not extensively as David does not take much pleasure from extensive touring these days. The Pink Floyd world tours would be enough for anyone!
A number of people have been sharing their thoughts with NPF regarding Polly Samson’s lyrics. Many really enjoy them as they are more meaningful and reflective compared to some of David’s other efforts in the past.
