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
