Maybe I'm Lucky 🍀

I used to think that luck was something Other people got to keep Like it passed me in the hallway While I was somewhere underneath I watched it happen from a distance Through windows I could never reach And every time I thought I had it It slipped away from me But somewhere between Everything I lost And everything I thought I'd never have I stopped and looked around Maybe I'm lucky Just not in the way I thought I'd be Maybe it's not winning Maybe it's having people stay with me Maybe I'm lucky 'Cause somehow I'm still here And when I look around me There's more love than I can see Maybe I'm lucky Maybe I finally see I've got friends who know my silence And don't need me to explain People at work who make the hard days A little easier again I've got someone beside me I still can't believe I found The kind of love I never knew Could ever stick around And there's a fat cat beside me Who somehow owns the whole damn house Maybe luck looks pretty ordinary When you're living it right now I spent so long Counting everything I lost I never noticed What was growing in the cracks Until I stopped and looked around Maybe I'm lucky Just not in the way I thought I'd be Maybe it's not winning Maybe it's having people stay with me Maybe I'm lucky 'Cause somehow I'm still here And when I look around me There's more love than I can see Maybe I'm lucky Maybe I finally see I don't have the life I thought I'd have I don't have the past I'd choose again But I'm here I'm loved I'm not alone And maybe that's enough To call it luck Maybe I'm lucky Just not in the way I thought I'd be Maybe luck was never Something waiting there for me Maybe I'm lucky 'Cause somehow I'm still here I've got people who love me And people I hold near Maybe I'm lucky Maybe I always was I just couldn't see it Through everything that hurt Maybe I'm lucky Maybe this is what it means To finally look around And like the life that's looking back at me.
