Lyrics Dead Can Dance

Dead Can Dance

Fortune

From ancient times to the present day

There have been those who have claimed her as a lover

So driven by the will to possess

Have pursued it to the very ends of the earth

We enter into it, it enters into us

We enter into it, it enters into us

As the wheel spins and turns from the words I seem to have learned

We enter into it, it enters into us

Fortune smiles upon our heads

Mistakenly we cling to the wall and wait

How we believe we seem to forgive and forget

Immersed in the security of our view of our world

There are those of you among us

Barren waiting places and empty skies

Their fates have already been decided upon

They will leave behind them only victims of their misplaced trust

We enter into it, it enters into us

We enter into it, it enters into us

As the wheel spins and turns from the words I seem to have learned

We enter into it, it enters into us

Fortune smiles upon our heads

Mistakenly we cling to the wall and wait

How we believe we seem to forgive and forget

Immersed in the security of our view of our world

Fortune smiles upon our heads

Fortune smiles upon our heads
