Intro:               

Verse 1:
                              
I don't get many things right the first time
                      *                       
In fact, I am told, that alot, now I know, all the wrong turns
                                         
The stumbles, and falls, brought me here

Chorus:
                                  
And where was I before the day I first saw
                                   *
Your lovely face, now I see it every day
                                   
And I know, that I am, I am, I am, the luckiest

      

Verse 2:
                           
What if I'd been born 50 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,

Chorus:
                                                        *
And then oh, I'd see your eyes as the one pair that I recognize
                                  
And I know, that I am, I am, I am the luckiest

Bridge:
                                                         
I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you

Verse 3:
                                           
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 around for a couple of days and passed away

Chorus:
                                                    
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
