The Luckiest Songtext

von Ben Folds Five

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.
