0:17I don't get many things right the first time
0:24In fact I am told that a lot
0:31Now I know all the wrong turns the stumbles
0:37And falls brought me here
0:48And where was I before the day
0:51That I first saw your lovely face
0:55Now I see it every day
1:01And I know
1:06That I am I am I am the luckiest
1:28What if I'd been born fifty years before you
1:35In a house on the street
1:39Where you lived
1:42Maybe I'd be outside
1:46As you passed on your bike
1:49Would I know
1:58And in a wide sea of eyes
2:02I see one pair that I recognize
2:12And I know
2:16That I am I am I am the luckiest
2:31I love you more then I have
2:36Ever found the way to say
2:40To you
2:45Next door there's an old man
2:50Who lived to his nineties and one day
2:54Passed away in his sleep
3:00And his wife she stayed for a couple of days
3:07And passed away
3:16I'm sorry I know that's a strange way
3:21To tell you that I know we belong
3:30That I know
3:33That I am I am I am 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 here
And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face
Now I see it every day
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 lived
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 recognize
And I know
That I am  I am  I am  the luckiest
I love you more then I have
Ever found the 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
