Even in the middle of a crowd, good fortune will know exactly where to find you and me.

Even when everyone else must search and strive, good things will find their way to you and me.

Even when the lines are long everywhere else, a special spot will open just as you arrive.

Even in places where nothing grows for others, our seeds will find good soil.

Even when the door looks closed to everyone else, our key will somehow fit perfectly.
