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 again

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 again
Lucky we're in love in 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

Do outro lado da água, do outro lado do oceano azul profundo

Garoto, eu te ouço nos meus sonhos

Você facilita as coisas quando a vida fica difícil

Para esperar por um amor como esse

Every time we say goodbye (every time we say goodbye)
Toda vez que dizemos adeus (toda vez que dizemos adeus)

Eu gostaria que tivéssemos mais um beijo

E assim estou navegando pelo mar

To an island where we'll meet
Para uma ilha onde nos encontraremos

You'll hear the music fill the air
Você ouvirá a música preencher o ar

I'll put a flower in your hair
Eu colocarei uma flor no seu cabelo


Though the breezes, through the trees
Apesar da brisa que passa através das árvores

You move so pretty, you're all I see
Você se move tão graciosamente, você é tudo que vejo

As the world keep spinning 'round
Enquanto o mundo continua girando

You hold me right here, right now
Você me mantém aqui, agora

This was our go to reminder of how lucky we were. I lost my wife/ best friend 6 weeks ago to cancer. This song still tells our love story even as she has left my side. Lucky to still be in love with such a beautiful spirit across the divide.
