lucky

Living in the moment that’s now yesterday

I thought that it would be all of us every summer

But now that I’m looking back I can see we were lucky to have so much time

Nothing so good could last forever

And sleeping on the beach we were all so crazy

Playing in the fire jumping over the flames

And giving you my blanket while the sun rose over all of us

Playing in the sand carving out all our names

I know we’ve gone

From ten down to two

And we’ve scattered so far

But I’m lucky to still have you

And these memories

Although they make me sad there’s nothing that I can do

I am keeping them and you

It’s all I need to know now

Summers on a boat sleeping out in the sunshine

Winters on a mountain drinking nothing but beer

And I kept your jacket so you’d have to come and take it back from me

And all the while people started to disappear

And a wedding in the spring that came as no surprise

Everybody’s got to go and find their own way

And watching as our “family” two by two they left to make their own

Never got to say some things I wanted to say

But it’s okay

I know we’ve gone

From ten down to two

And we’ve scattered so far

But I’m lucky to still have you

And these memories

Although they make me sad there’s nothing that I can do

I am keeping them and you

I know we’ve gone

From ten down to two

And we’ve scattered so far

But I’m lucky to still have you

And these memories

Although they make me sad there’s nothing that I can do

I am keeping them and you

It’s all I need to know now

All I need to know now

It is all I really need to know right now
