Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So lucky to be loving you
So lucky to be the one you run to see
In the evening, when the day is through
I only know what I know, the passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new
And time after time, you'll hear me say that I'm
I only know what I know, the passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new
And time after time, you'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you
