BEN FOLDS - THE LUCKIEST LYRICS

BEN FOLDS - THE LUCKIEST LYRICS:

There are few songs as incredibly romantic as this....
this moves me almost to tears each time I hear it.

I wish you well dear, dear unsaid friend....

"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 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 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"

  3. LOL! Cute kitty. Video is nice. Didn't recognize Ben Folds name but recognized his face after seeing the video. He was a judge on one of those talent shows on TV.
