Or "I keep my fingers crossed". usually for someone or something. That is when one wishes for luck or a good outcome for someone or something. 'I hope you will pass your exam,I keep my fingers crossed for you.'

I surely won't miss the opportunity of quoting one of the songs I love best ! song: Everybody knows; Author: Leonard Cohen; quotation: Everybody knows that the dice are loaded Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed (the gesture is meant to keep bad luck away) Everybody knows that the war is over Everybody knows the good guys lost Everybody knows the fight was fixed The poor stay poor, the rich get rich That's how it goes .... ... In case you are curious about the song, here is a link to hear it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q63plx5NClI (original version approx. 1988) lyrics: www.elyrics.net/read/l/leonard-cohen-lyrics/everybody-knows-lyrics.html Thank you for the opportunity of quoting a great artist as Leonard Cohen is.
