the luckiest

Lyrics

i don't get many things right the first time, in fact, i am told that a lot, now i know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls, brought me here, and where was i before the day, that i first saw your lovely face?, now i see it everyday, and i know, that i am, i am, i am, the luckiest, what if i'd been born fifty years before you, in a house on a street where you lived?, maybe i'd be outside as you passed on your bike, would i know?, and in a wide sea of eyes, i see one pair that i recognize, and i know, that i am, i am, i am, the luckiest, i love you more than i have ever found a way to say to you, next door there's an old man who lived to his nineties, and one day passed away in his sleep, and his wife; she stayed for a couple of days, and passed away, i'm sorry, i know that's a strange way to tell you that i know we belong, that i know, that i am, i am, i am, the luckiest
