It was a monday, when my lover told me, 
"never pay the reaper with love only." 
What could i say to you, except, "i love you." 
And "i'd give my life for  yours." 

I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones, dear.

The first time we made love, i... i wasn't sober. 
(and you told me you loved me over and over!) 
How could i ever love another, when i miss you every day...

Remember the time we made love in the roses? 
(and you took my picture in all sorts of poses!) 
How could i ever get over you, when i'd give my life for yours.

I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones, dear. 

My dear, It's time to say i thank god for you. 
I thank god for you in each and every single way. 
And, i know... i know.. i know.. i know...  

It's time to let you know. time to let you know. 
Time to let you know. time to sit here and say... 

I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones, dear.
We are the lucky ones, dear...

Remember the words of ram dass: "death is like taking off a tight shoe."
