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 ands tumbles and falls
brought me here.
now it was right 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 50 year 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 then i'd see your eyes,
i'd see one pair that i'd 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 90's
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.
