You know I watched you grow, you know I did my best
But I can never take credit for the woman you've become
You know I held your hand, I helped you pass the test
In a past life there must have been some good I've done
'Cause when you shine on me
Oh, I watch the river shimmer
And glimmer like a diamond in the sun
Yeah, when you shine on me
My greatest gift, my greatest giver
Even with nothing more than our love
We are the lucky ones
Woo-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are
You know they're all so proud
They ain't prouder than me
Sometimes I can't believe my eyes
When I look at you and see what I see
It's all been a blur, you grew up so fast
But the times we spend together, babe
I wish that they forever would last
'Cause when you shine on me
Oh, I watch the river shimmer
And glimmer like a diamond in the sun
Yeah, when you shine on me
My greatest gift, my greatest giver
Even with nothing more than our love
We are the lucky ones
Woo-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
Woo-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are
And on a clear night, the stars shine so bright
Sometimes you know they don't feel all that far
And in this great big sky a tear comes to my eye
To know by far you are my brightest star
'Cause when you shine on me
Oh, I watch the river shimmer
And glimmer like a diamond in the sun
Yeah, when you shine on me
My greatest gift, my greatest giver
Even with nothing more than our love
We are the lucky ones
Woo-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
Woo-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
We are, we are, we are
We are the lucky ones
