I’ll walk the pretty way,
even though I can’t go home
I’ll watch the colors fade,
even though I’m not alone
I’ve seen destruction and demise
I’ve seen the look of pure love in your eyes
I’ll wake and take with me,
what ever comes that day
I’m beaten down, but I’m not too tired to play
On indecision and debris
I lost my footing and I fell free
I’m lucky
I landed lightly
I’m lucky
Now I can dry my eyes
and wish beyond regret
The reasons why I left, I’m learning to forget
One rainy night on Hallow’s Eve
I jumped up high and caught the kiss
of something sweet
I’m lucky
I landed lightly
I’m lucky
You know I never cried,
I never used to cry,
You know I never cried,
You know I never cried
I’m lucky
I landed lightly
I’m lucky
