I am the Luckiest

I don't get many thing
right the first time
in fact, I am told that a lot
now I know all the wrong turns --
the stumbles and the falls brought me here
and where was I before the day
that I first saw your lovely face
now I see it everyday
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 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 love that I can finally say, "Hey, they're playing our song."
I love you and I feel more blessed than I ever have. You are a gift from God and the most exciting part of my life right now is discovering where God will take us next. I do feel lucky in the sense that God chose to bring you into my life and that you have become my best friend.
Thank you.
