I Was So Lucky

Music & Lyrics Per Gessle

It's no secret I've been waiting

But I didn't expect this

Nothing will remain

Nothing stays the same

After you came

It's no secret I've been starving

I never felt anything for years

I sat up all night

Just to watch your smile

When you're sleeping

I was so lucky you came by

And turned a different corner

I could've been somewhere else

You could've passed by, could've passed by

Come on and sail the sea with me

Come on, let's go around the world

Maybe find a flat

Or a canyon house

For the season

I was so lucky you came by

And turned a different corner

It could've been someone else

You had in mind

I was so lucky you found me

My rags turned gold and silver

I could've been somewhere else

You could've passed by, could've passed by

What would you make of this, my baby?

The sun through the trees

Is there a better place to be?

I was so lucky you came by

And turned a different corner

It could have been someone else

I was so lucky you picked me

My trash turned to silver

Yea, I could have been somewhere else

You could've passed by, could'be passed by
