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...

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...the luckiest.
