“Bad Luck Love” is Benjamin’s first single after a year of his album release Fingerprints. It’s about wanting to get involved with someone despite fearing it will turn out bad. He said in an interview:
The story of the song is genuine and sad. Love is the most wonderful but also the most excruciati...
[Verse 1]
I know we just met, but I have to admit you already got me
Catching my breath, losin' my grip, you make it look easy
I don't wanna waste your time, or mine
This may be a miss, there's something 'bout this
Has me thinking I'll take my chances
I'll take my chances
[Chorus]
This could be a bad luck love
But I'm going all in
Just wanna get close enough
To feel what you're thinking
You got your ways to make me go, "Ooh"
The second you said "Hello", then I knew
This could be a bad luck love
A bad luck love
[Post-Chorus]
I'm going all in
(Bad luck love)
[Verse 2]
I may be insane
Won't try to explain why I want it again and again
Meet me half way
I hate playing games unless I know I have a good hand
I don't wanna waste your time, or mine
This may be a miss, but I don't give a shit
I'm thinking I'll take my chances
[Chorus]
This could be a bad luck love
But I'm going all in
Just wanna get close enough
To feel what you're thinking
You got your ways to make me go, "Ooh"
The second you said "Hello", then I knew
This could be a bad luck love
A bad luck love
[Post-Chorus]
I'm going all in
(Bad luck love)
I'm going all in
(Bad luck love)
[Bridge]
It's speedin' through the red lights to ya
So let's enjoy what we got right now (Bad luck love)
Nights on your skin will be worth it
Even if we come crashin' down (Yeah, bad luck love)
[Chorus]
This could be a bad luck love
But I'm going all in
Just wanna get close enough
To feel what you're thinking
You got your ways to make me go, "Ooh"
The second you said "Hello", then I knew
This could be a bad luck love
A bad luck love
[Post-Chorus]
I'm going all in (I'm going all in)
(Bad luck love)
I'm going all in
(Bad luck love)
[Outro]
I'm going all in
The second you said "Hello", then I knew
(Bad luck love)
