Remember Ricky told Diane when he slipped
That gold ring on her hand it was there to stay
Now the attorneys are on the phone
Dividing up everything they own they're going separate ways
So many hearts get wasted
In those Ricky and Diane cases
And I hate to see good love die young
Oh, we're two of the lucky ones
Love will save a few then bury some
The heart grows fond or the heart goes numb
I knew from the first star we wished upon
We're two of the lucky ones
Now just like Ricky and Diane
Love could have slipped right through our hands
But we kept holding on, call it good fortune or you call it fate
But the luck we've had we've had to make by working hard at home
So many hearts get wasted
When they stop bending they start breaking
The longer we love the more we learn
Oh, we're two of the lucky ones
Love will save a few then bury some
The heart grows fond or the heart goes numb
I knew from the first star we wished upon
We're two of the lucky ones
Girl, we're two of the lucky ones
