Fortune Lyrics

I waited for a sunny day to launch my grand design
The clouds would loom, the wind would turn--it happened every time
Until at last it struck me: I should just let it all unfold
The sun is shining somewhere
Fortune loves the bold.

They laughed and shouted questions to the fool out in the storm
They thought that I would envy them, all safe and dry and warm
But I think I'm done with staying right where I've been pigeonholed
The sun is shining somewhere
And fortune loves the bold.

So now I seize the chance to run where in the past I've strolled
I've learned that luck won't change itself--it has to be cajoled
And if you wait for sunny days, your tale remains untold
The sun is shining somewhere
The sun is shining somewhere...
Fortune loves the bold.

I waited for a sunny day to launch my grand design...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
