Ben Folds--The Luckiest cover

My cover of Ben Folds' song, The Luckiest.
Several mistakes by me and not a very good quality recording.
But I love this song!

Ben Folds-The Luckiest
Lyrics:

I don't get many things right the first time;
In fact, I am told that a lot.
And 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.

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.

A moment of glory The blink of an eye and it's all gone You hide in confinement Dark is the cell that you call home We pretend to be blind Every time it hurts to see You - you close your eyes To blink the night away At ease in the wastelands You - you're dead and blind You sanctify the way Blindfold in the wastelands </3 -AsceticFinitude19
