Lucky Lyrics

[Chorus: Chelsea Cutler]
How lucky am I, how lucky am I, yeah
To love somebody, to love somebody
How lucky am I, how lucky am I, yeah
To love somebody, to love somebody like

[Verse 1: Chelsea Cutler]
You are the voice in my head, something I cannot forget
Your word is gospel and I want you
Moving at the speed of light, two wrongs can still make a right
If you believe it and I want to

[Chorus: Chelsea Cutler & Alexander 23]
How lucky am I, how lucky am I, yeah
To love somebody, to love somebody
How lucky am I, how lucky am I, yeah
To love somebody, to love somebody like (Yeah)

[Verse 2: Alexander 23]
Sometimes, I wish you would've stayed in my dreams
'Cause now that you're real, now I could lose you
Nothing lasts forever ain't as bad as it seems
'Cause my favorite thing to do is to do nothing with you

[Chorus: Chelsea Cutler & Alexander 23]
How lucky am I, how lucky am I, yeah
To love somebody, to love somebody
How lucky am I, how lucky am I, yeah
To love somebody, to love somebody like
[Post-Chorus: Chelsea Cutler & Alexander 23, Chelsea Cutler]
To love somebody, to love somebody
(How lucky am I, yeah)
To love somebody, to love somebody

[Outro: Chelsea Cutler with Alexander 23]
It's not every day you could hear me say, you could hear me
I love somebody, I love somebody
It's not every day you could hear me say, you could hear me
I love somebody, I love somebody
, yeah
