"The Luckiest" lyrics

"The Luckiest"
(originally by Ben Folds)

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 50 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

I am
The luckiest
