Lucky them

it's been awhile..

I finally found the lyrics and some videos of Jason Mraz- Lucky.
I first heard it sang by two local singers in a Sunday variety show.
I thought they originally made the song, it turned out it was Jason Mraz'
It is a very sweet song.
"...I'm lucky I'm in love with my bestfriend...
Lucky to have been where I have been..."

Which really made me wonder...Had I only been better... then,
would he have considered me?...would he been attracted to me?
...Better as in better, looking, more kind, more intelligent,
more understanding
more friendly...at least?
At least he's my friend until now,
It has been 4 years since we last met.
His girlfriend is as pretty and kind as ever...
well, even if it's not with me, it's really really nice that
someTHINGS work. In our world of cynicism and negativity, IT could work...
I mean I know them both...
I was there, I was in the middle of everything before it all started...
Love and friendship do work...
I'm actually preparing myself,
The day when they would finally announce that they're ready to settle down...
I know he is...The thing is would I be ever prepared...
Only time would tell...

Jason Mraz & Colbie Caillat - Lucky lyrics

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Oooohhhhoohhhhohhooohhooohhooohoooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music, fell the air
I put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
