Artist: Ben Folds Album: Rockin' The Suburbs (2001) Title: The Luckiest
Lyrics The LuckiestI 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 recognise
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
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 |
