The Lucky One
We carried all the colors
From the portrait of our summer
We never felt the answers
Weighing down our shoulders
Time goes fast when you wander
And nothing lasts forever
But I still feel the power
Of you and me together
And light that surrounds you
I know I'm the lucky one
'Though I'm always the last to believe
I know I'm the lucky one
'Cause I'm here and you're with me
So tell me are you willing
To try this thing called living
'Cause there's so many edges hidden
It's so hard to be forgiving
But I'll try once if you ask me
And once again everlasting
For all my days I'll love you
And all the stars you run through
See the light surround you
I know I'm the lucky one
'Though I'm always the last to believe
I know I'm the lucky one
'Cause I'm here and you're with me
When the wrongs and the rights all've been pushed aside
You're my favorite color
You're the black to the white and the warmth inside
You're the sun I'm under
I volunteer to watch you
Through the dreams that haunt you
I promise to wake you
Before the fear takes you
May the light surround you
(May the light surround you)
May the light surround you
I know I'm the lucky one
'Though it took so long to see
I know I'm the lucky one
'Cause I'm here and you're with me
(May the light surround you)
