Charmed Life - The Divine Comedy, Neil Hannon

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
