Lucky Us

flyin' high and wide, sinkin' slow
when I ran into you thirty years ago
and you were all a young woman could be to me
I had to get home there were things left to do
I had hearts left to break, things left to lose
and I let you wait outside to freeze

and a lifetime later I was back on my own
the thrills were gone, my kids were all grown
and I wondered where I was goin' with my life
with my life
flying home from the desert one night in a daze
you came out of nowhere with questions in your face
and I knew right then that you would be my wife

and the wheels go round and the band gets loud
you can hear the people cheer
I got down on my knees in the middle of the road
there'll never be another day like that
if I live a hundred years
I don't hear anybody else talking
you are music to my ears
lucky us
lucky me, lucky you
lucky us

lucky us
lucky me, lucky you
lucky us

and all I want to do is love you
all i want to do is be good to you, baby
I'm never gonna let you go again, no no
and all I want to do, all I want to do
is love you, and hold you
I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you get away again
lucky us
lucky us
lucky us
lucky us
