The Lucky One

A serious car wreck

A bad fall from a cliff

And the raging blue river once took me

From a raft in Breckenridge

Been held up in New Orleans

Strung out in Stockholm

And I've slept out on those cold cold streets

Of New York City alone

I can't explain why I'm still here today

I'm just thankful that I am

Yeah and I have survived more than I should

I pushed it as far as I could, reaching for the sky

And I've walked on the edge more than most

Heaven knows I've cut it close

But I'm alive after all I have done

It's you that makes me the lucky one

Yeah, my heart has been broken

By love and by death

And I been down on my knees

Prayin' to Jesus for devils breath

And I've lost all my money

You know faith and beliefs

Still the world around me

Showed nothing but sympathy

And every day that I wake up to see the sun

I thank God you still think I'm the one

Yeah and I have survived more than I should

I pushed it as far as I could, reaching for the sky

And I've walked on the edge more than most

Heaven knows I've cut it close

I'm alive after all that I have done

It's you that makes me the lucky one

You make me the lucky one

After all that I have done

It's you that makes me the lucky one
