soundtrack of my life

the luckiest

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

What if I’d been born 50 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 90s
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

aces

Well my old friend said to me
I ain’t being what I’m supposed to be
Well I don’t know, it could be true
I know I wasn’t always there for you

Now you’re ready to walk out,
You’re ready to run
Talk to me, can’t you see
I would never want to do what it seems I’ve done
You can’t deal me the aces and think I wouldn’t play
Don’t let this be the reason you would walk away

The things you think that I should do
I’ve never understood that part of you
You know I’ve tried to be a friend
But you feel undermined and hurt again

Now don’t let it convince you,
Please don’t take it to heart
Compromise and realize
You can never really run everything you start

You can’t deal me the aces and think I wouldn’t play
Don’t let this be the reason you would walk away

And I guess I said I couldn’t see
How things could turn out like they’ve come to be
And if I lied, and if I knew
I was only trying to think of you

follow your arrow

If you save yourself for marriage,
You’re a bore.
If you don’t save yourself for marriage,
You’re a horr-ible person
If you won’t have a drink,
Then you’re a prude;
But they’ll call you a drunk
As soon as you down the first one.

If you can’t lose the weight,
Then you’re just fat
But if you lose too much,
Then you’re on crack
You’re damned if you do,
And you’re damned if you don’t
So you might as well just do,
Whatever you want
So…

Make lots of noise
And kiss lots of boys,
Or kiss lots of girls
If that’s something you’re into.
When the straight and narrow
Gets a little too straight
Roll up a joint, or don’t,
Just follow your arrow
Wherever it points, yeah
Follow your arrow
Wherever it points

If you don’t go to church,
You’ll go to hell.
If you’re the first one
On the front row,
You’re self-righteous
Son of a …
Can’t win for losing,
You just disappoint ’em,
Just ’cause you can’t beat ’em,
Don’t mean you should join ’em

So make lots of noise
And kiss lots of boys,
Or kiss lots of girls
If that’s something you’re into.
When the straight and narrow
Gets a little too straight
Roll up a joint, or don’t,
Just follow your arrow
Wherever it points, yeah
Follow your arrow
Wherever it points

Say what you think,
Love who you love,
‘Cause you just get
So many trips ’round the sun
Yeah, you only, only live once

So make lots of noise
And kiss lots of boys,
Or kiss lots of girls
If that’s something you’re into.
When the straight and narrow
Gets a little too straight
Roll up a joint – I would –
And follow your arrow
Wherever it points, yeah
Follow your arrow
Wherever it points
