Off The Mainstream

One of my favorite songs of all time is one I have never heard on the radio, only as background music to TV or off of a soundtrack to that TV show. I was running my 3 miles today and must have picked up some high school station on my walkman. That's the nice thing about high school stations, they sometimes play things totally off the mainstream. Bif Naked has a very haunting voice like Amy Lee from Evanescence. Lucky is a very beautiful song.

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...
