Lucky...

Last night I went over to our friend Dawn and Moke's house for a night out. Jeff met Moke at work and Dawn and I really hit it off from the first time that we met. Even though we only got to hang out a handfull of times while Jeff was here, Dawn has been keeping tabs on me since Jeff left. She got me out and about my first weekend without Jeff and checks in with me during the week to make sure that I am doing ok. I honestly believe that Jeff and I were supposed to meet them...they have become great friends to us.

While I was over, Dawn asked me if I had heard the song called "Lucky" by Jason Mraz. When I told her I hadn't she said that I had to because the first time she heard it, she thought of Jeff and I. So we found it on the computer and I honestly think that someone snuck into our life and decided to write a song about it! I wanted to share the lyrics with you since they are so honest and true...and since you all know Jeff and I, you will understand how it could truly be "our song."

Lucky
Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillet

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
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh 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 again
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 every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

All I know is that I am the lucky one because Jeff chose me...and lucky to be by his side and in his heart.
