[Verse 1]
Operator, can you patch me through?
I need the clear lights in my dreams
I headed out, you've been out 'til late
Tripped on the things at my feet
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, it's the wrong way (Do-do-do, do-do-do)
To find the right way (Do-do-do, do-do-do)
Well, you had every right to ignore me
I was lucky to have your company
Yeah, I was
[Chorus]
Oh, well, I think I saw my luck run out
Oh, we'd found the door and kicked it out
Oh, I went over the hill in leaps and bounds
In the sum of the lucky one
[Verse 2]
I left home with the iron honor
While I could have nothing left
Set my bed up in the fireplace
With a soup pie in the haze
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I could see you (Do-do-do, do-do-do)
But couldn't reach you (Do-do-do, do-do-do)
Oh, you were laughin' as you drove away
I was not worthy of you, anyway
No, I wasn't
[Chorus]
Oh, well, I think I saw my luck run out
Oh, we'd found the door and kicked it out
Oh, I went over the hill in leaps and bounds
In the sum of the lucky one
In the sum of the lucky one
[Bridge]
I couldn't give you all of me
Move on to the gallery
Where all your students have had enough
I clean my plate
My ceramic real estate
Ooh, yes, I'll be asleep
[?]
Yeah, I'll be ridin' on that next wave
[Chorus]
Oh, well, I think I saw my luck run out
Oh, we'd found the door and kicked it out
Oh, I went over the hill in leaps and bounds
In the sum of the lucky one
Well, if you don't want me then just go now
There's no much point in hangin' round
Oh, I hate you're gone but it slipped right out
In the sum of the lucky one
In the sum of the lucky one

Speaking to The AU Review in May 2020, Pearce said:
It’s a real mixed bag of songs here. Working with Andy Lawson and then Hayden Calnin for “Ceramic Real Estate” I was listening to all sorts of tunes. Both studios were an hour away from where I lived so I had plenty of listening time in between al...
