With a little luck we can help it out We can make this whole damn thing work out With a little love we can lay it down Can't you feel the town exploding There is no end to what we can do together There is no end The willow turns his back on inclement weather And if he can do it we can do it Just me and you And a little luck we can clear it up We can bring it in for a landing With a little luck we can turn it on There can be no misunderstanding There is no end to what we can do together There is no end The willow turns his back on inclement weather And if he can do it Just me and you With a little push we could set it off We can send it rocketing skywards With a little love we could shake it up Don't you feel the comet exploding With a little luck, with a little luck With a little luck, a little luck, a little luck With a little love, we can lay it down Can't you feel the town exploding With a little push, we could set it off We could send it rocketing skywards With a little love, we could shake it up Don't you feel the comet exploding forwards
