The Luckiest
Thanks Sarah for introducing me to this song!
Ben Folds' "The Luckiest"
"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 hereAnd where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it everyday
And I knowThat I amI amI 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 white sea of eyesI see one pair that I recognize
And I knowThat I amI amI am
The luckiestI 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 awayI'm sorry, I know that's a strange way to tell you
that I know we belong
That I knowThat I amI amI am
The luckiest."
