LUCKY I WAS

Didn't know how lucky I was
To be alone

Set the code and make my way back
To my average home

And no one could have said
If I was alive or dead

Didn't know how lucky I was

Didn't know how lucky I was
To find your company
Have someone to love
and have someone who loves me

Together not alone
We make a place that we call home

Didn't know how lucky I was

Later in the street
We walk side by side
More often under rain
Than blue skies

Splashed by cars as they pass by
But we just laugh and smile

Didn't know how lucky I was

Didn't know how lucky I was

She's a girl from a long time ago
When I was just a boy
Scared of my own shadow

And she plays on my mind
From time to time
She told me
Didn't know how lucky I was

Didn't know how lucky I was
To be alone
Make my way back
Under starry skies
To a slightly bigger home

With friends that could have said
If I was alive or dead
Didn't know how lucky I was

Didn't know how lucky I was
To find your company
Have someone to love
And have someone who loves me

Together not alone
We make a place that we call home

Didn't know how lucky I was

She's a woman from a long time ago
Lives in the sunlight and the shadow
And she plays on my mind
From time to time
Didn't know how lucky I was

So here's to the open minded and the kind
Here's to the sensual and the sublime

And you play on my mind
From time to time
Didn't know how lucky I was
