Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

vocal I know!!! They sound so great together. And I love,love,love the lyrics especially when they sang "they don't know how long it takes,waiting for a love like this" This song reminds me of my boyfriend. True,it's different from what Jason Mraz usually sings but it's a great song for relaxing

vocal I'm a guy and, without sounding incredibly gay, I think Jason Mraz is amazing. His "play on words" and lyrical content is really something. He always tries to incorporate something different into all his songs which provides a wide spectrum of sounds for different tastes.
This song in particular makes me think of this one girl: my ex. We're GREAT(!) as just friends but we had a hard first go at the whole relationship thing. We're talking again and things seem very different in a good way -- we both matured a lot and it seems like things will work. I'm kinda hesitant about the whole thing but I'm very much in love with her as she is with me. We're great friends but the relationship part is kinda worrying -- we just don't wanna lose each other.
To make it short, this song reminds me of her because she IS my best friend and I'm very in love with her.

vocal this song is incredible. The way they harmonize together is amazing.
It really makes me think of my husband who is in the national guard doing his 20 weeks of basic and AIT training. Especially the part "Lucky to be coming home again". It always lifts my spirits and makes me cry sometimes just thinking of the length of time hes away. My heart goes out to anyone who has loved ones serving time over seas or even the ones that just left their loved ones to do something bigger and better things for our country. I wish everyone who is in that situation the best of luck. All I can say is this song marks to a T exactly how I feel about my husband. To anyone who is in my situation or a similar one my advice for you is to stay strong and count your sundays. The time will fly. Just keep busy and write every chance you get and make most of the time that is allotted for phone calls. It just really makes you realize that time is precious and like my other favorite songwriter, Mr. Dave Matthews himself says "Make the best of whats around".
