The Divine Comedy - Charmed Life lyrics

When I hold you in my arms And look back on my charmed life, my charmed life I hope, I hope if nothing more That one day you'll call your life a charmed life Well I've never really worried that much About making lots of money and such And I always seem to land upon my feet And though there's been some difficult times The good times were never far behind I've snatched all of my victories from the jaws of defeat When I hold you in my arms And look back on my charmed life, my charmed life I hope, baby I hope if nothing more That one day you'll call your life a charmed life Well the course of true love never ran smooth They broke my heart and I broke theirs too And breaking up is so very hard to do But I knew I'd find the one And sure enough she came along And not long after that along came you Well sometimes this life is like being afloat On a raging sea in a little row-boat Just trying not to be washed overboard But if you take your chances and you ride your luck And you never, never, never, never, never give up Those waves will see you safely to a friendly shore When I hold you in my arms I know that this is a charmed life A charmed life
