She don't know the difference
Between light and dark
She's watching the clock

Keeping time with her heart
She don't know much about anything
But she knows the pain that love can bring


I wish someone would tell her
That a sign will come

It'll flash in neon
Saying “Walk, don't run”
Just a short walk over to the other side

Where the grass is greener and dreams never die

Just when you think your life is over

You're twenty-one and looking for
Your four-leaf clover
Luck has nothing to do with it

Take control and go right to it
Start it all over again


She's waiting on the doorstep
For the morning mail
Maybe a letter from a friend

Only time will tell
She counts each crack in the walk below


Just when you think your life is over
You're twenty-one and looking for
Your four-leaf clover

Luck has nothing to do with it
Take control and go right to it
Start it all over again


She don't know the difference
Between light and dark

She's watching the clock
Keeping time with her heart


Just when you think your life is over
You're twenty-one and looking for
Your four-leaf clover

Luck has nothing to do with it
Take control and go right to it
Start it all over again


Just when you think your life is over
Just when you think it might be over

You gotta keep on looking, start it over
Just when you think it might be over
Ooooh yeah, start it over
