Serendipity

It makes no difference if you love or hate her;

Whatever you do, it’s all the same

It makes no difference if you just ignore her

Whatever you do, she runs the game.

Serendipity said, our eyes would meet without us ever knowing

Serendipity said she don’t care

Serendipity said, our paths would cross without us ever knowing

Serendipity said she don’t care.

It makes no difference if you love her or hate her

Whatever you do, it’s all the same

It makes no difference if you just ignore her

Whatever you do, she runs the game

At the tip of a wink, the drop of a hat

At the turning of the card

Serendipity told me, she’d be there

At the spin of a coin, the drop of the bead

At the rolling of the dice

Serendipity told me, she’d be there.

Serendipity told me, that I’d find her around the nearest corner

Serendipity told me, that the coast was clear

Serendipity knows I’m spending all my time preparing for her

Serendipity knows, she’s close to here.

Serendipity said that if circumstances change, whatever

Serendipity said that she don’t care

Serendipity told me, that she and I could live together

Serendipity tells me, she knows where.

It makes no difference if you love her or hate her

Whatever you do, it’s all the same

It makes no difference if you just ignore her

Whatever you do, she runs the game

At the drop of a hat, the tip of a wink

At the turning of the card

Serendipity told me, she’d be there

At the spin of a coin, the drop of the bead

At the rolling of the dice

Serendipity told me, she don’t care

Serendipity, Serendipity said.

At the tip of a wink, the drop of the hat, the turn of the card

Serendipity told me, she’d be there, she simply didn’t care at all

The spin of a coin, the skip of the wheel, the roll of the dice

Serendipity told me that she wouldn’t be there

She simply doesn’t care at all

The hair of the dog

Slide me a hair of a dog

Madame Serendipity

Sweet little madam Serendipity.
