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 the street where you live?
|
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
