Lucky
GLEE.. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home someday
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair

Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning 'round
You hold me right here, right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday





Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh

Overall Meaning

The song "Lucky" by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat is a romantic and melodic tune that expresses gratitude for being in love with someone who happens to be one's best friend. The first verse sets the scene of distance and separation, across water and under an open sky, hoping to be with the person of interest. This emotion is heightened by hearing the person's voice in dreams and carrying them close to the heart. The chorus states that the singer is "lucky" to have "been where I have been," coming home someday, in love in every way, and especially that their best friend is also their lover. The second verse describes the difficulties in waiting for this type of love and the longing for one more kiss, making a promise that waiting for this love is worth it. Finally, the bridge is all about viewing the world through the lens of the loved one and a hopeful future, sailing to an island filled with music, flowers in the hair, and holding on tight.
