Analysis of Goodluck



Four leaf clover in a meadow.
A penny on heads.
I'll be your good luck.

Pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.
Two white doves outside your window.
I'll be your good luck.

Shooting star at night.
Golden egg at Easter.
I'll be your good luck.

I'll be the good luck you thought you never had.
Promise you light in the dark and give you the moon.
Find you rain in the drought.

I'll be your good luck.
