” Lucky As Me”
Well I’ve seen the world, the world I’ve seen, / Far and wide and in between. / Lord, if only my love were lonely no more.
Whenever I’m lost, I pray I’m found. / Wherever you are’s wherever I’m bound. / I shall sing my song ‘til the day I long no more.
For I am lucky you see, and lucky to be / ‘Cause lucky for you is lucky for me. / Oh, what a world this world would be, / If everyone could be as lucky as me.
Well I’ll follow the moon and chase the stars, / No matter how long, no matter how far. / Wherever I’m going I go there knowing you’re near.
Well I close my eyes and see your face, / You save my soul with your saving grace. / Like a promise made I’m no longer afraid when you’re near.
For I am lucky you see, and lucky to be / ‘Cause lucky for you is lucky for me. / Oh, what a world this world could be, / If everyone could be as lucky as me.
When all is lost and broken dreams, / Unanswered prayers, and tragic themes, / Like a perfect line in a perfect poem, / You bring me, bring me, bring me home.
With a hand o’er my heart I hope and pray / Tomorrow’s dream comes true today. / All I ever want now’n forever is you.
Well I think of you and I’m safe from harm, / I think of you and I’m in your arms. / Lord above I have found true love with you.
For I am lucky you see, and lucky to be / ‘Cause lucky for you is lucky for me. / Oh, what a world this world would be, / If everyone could be as lucky as me.
Oh if everyone could be…
Today is our 6 month anniversary! The song “Lucky As Me” from playwright Jeff Daniels album “Together Again” was featured in the play Escanaba in Love. It was also our First Dance song at our wedding. The fantastic Cirque Du Soleil show Wednesday night was our unofficial celebration of a great first six months together as husband and wife….looking forward to so many more happy years together!
Dear Husband,
“I like you because I don’t know why but
Everything that happens is nicer with you”
– from the book “I Like You” by Sandol Stoddard
I guess I still like you after all this time. ;-)
Love,
Wifey
Ha is that the alligator book with the bonnet on top “I Like You” book?!
Haha, the one we bought in Anthropologie? Yep, sure is! And who can resist a dancing, tea-drinking alligator in a bonnet?
