"Lucky" lyrics

"Lucky"

(Dum-dum, dum-dum)
(Dum-dum, dum-dum)

If you're so lucky that she lets you know her heart
Be careful how you hold it
If you're so worried that the afterlife is dark
Then make sure that she knows this
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved

Least I can always say that I told her
How the only thing I know is how to hold her
Long as I can feel her head upon my shoulder
Well, I'd never feel the nights getting colder

I can't relate to having a heart like that
All your wonder and your trust intact
I put the phone down and you call right back
Put all my pieces back
If I deserve it or not

Let me tell you how the sun rose
How my heart dipped
How her eyes were all full up
Love can leave you down a dirt road
With a burst lip
And your pride all cut up
Let me tell you that it's worth it
So protect it
I know it hurt you so much
But you know that I respect it
You were tested
And I saw how you stood up

If you're so lucky that she lets you know her heart
Be careful how you hold it
If you're so worried that the afterlife is dark
Then make sure that she knows this
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved

Dum-dum, dum-dum (We can make it, have some heart)
Dum-dum, dum-dum (I get emotional about it, I'm about to cry 'cause I care about ya'll)

I can't relate to having a heart like that
All your wonder and your trust intact
I put the phone down and you call right back
Put all my pieces back
If I deserve it or not

Let me tell you how the sun rose
How my heart dipped
How her eyes were all full up
Love can leave you down a dirt road
With a burst lip
And your pride all cut up
Let me tell you that it's worth it
So protect it
I know it hurt you so much
But you know that I respect it
You were tested
And I saw how you stood up

If you're so lucky that she lets you know her heart
Be careful how you hold it
If you're so worried that the afterlife is dark
Then make sure that she knows this
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved

Let me tell you 'bout a good soul
How my heart skipped
How I could have died that summer
Love can leave you down a dirt road
Till you curse it
Still your god wouldn't pull up
Don't we know that nothing's perfect?
We accept it
Love is flawed just like all us
Every little thing the sun shows
Well, it's worth it
All the scars that you suffered

If you're so lucky that she lets you know her heart
Be careful how you hold it
If you're so worried that the afterlife is dark
Then make sure that she knows this
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
She is loved, she is loved, she is loved
