I’ve got my fingers crossed
Not that I’m superstitious
I’m afraid it’s too good to be true
I’ve got my fingers crossed
No wonder I’m suspicious
I’m so gay, and the skies are much too blue

Don’t want no trouble with Old Man Trouble
And that goes double
On account of, because I’m in love again

This thrill is so delicious
I’m afraid it’s too good to be true

Haven’t you heard what happened?
Give you my word, it happened
Like a thunderbolt it came from out of nowhere
I only know it’s heaven 
How did I throw that seven?
There’s only one thing more
Maybe it won’t last long

I’ve got my fingers crossed
Not that I’m superstitious
I’m afraid it’s too good to be true
I’ve got my fingers crossed
No wonder I’m suspicious
I’m so gay, and the skies are much too blue

Don’t want no trouble with Old Man Trouble
And that goes double
On account of, because I’m in love again

This thrill is so delicious
I’m afraid it’s too good to be true
