Lately I been thinking, ‘bout the way things might have been
If I’d not met you, girl, and she’d not met him
I can’t imagine life without you, it’s a mystery to me
The way that life hangs by a thread, and serendipity
You may live in a gilded cage or be a beggar on the street
You might wear a crown of thorns like the man from Galilee
I’ve spent many a long night wondering, why you’re you and I’m me
All comes down to a twist of fate and serendipity
We just play with the cards we’re dealt
Could be an Ace, could be a three
All comes down the dealer, and serendipity
Hey Hey Methuselah, will you be a friend to me
I don’t want no aches and pains, no messed up memory
And Hey Hey old Father Time don’t look at me that way
Maybe I’ll fool ya, and live forever and a day
Ain’t no love song sweeter, than the blackbird’s in the tree
Ain’t no painting finer, than the sunset on the sea
And there ain’t no diamond shines as bright as the smile you give to me
So I’ll just thank my lucky stars and serendipity
