I used to live under a cloud
Lonely, even in the largest crowd
Searching and calling her name out loud
I had no reason to be proud
Until you opened up the door
I didn’t know what I was searching for
All I knew was that I couldn’t take much more
I simply had to even-up the score
··· You’ve given me more feelings than I could list
··· I never thought such feelings could exist
··· It hurts to think of all the love I’ve missed
··· The most passionate woman I’ve ever kissed
No way can I keep it inside
Emotions are so hard to hide
I don’t think we can stem this tide
Why were we destined to collide?
Day and night I think of you
Dreaming about our next rendezvous
Afraid you’re just too good to be true
No longer sure of what to do
··· You’ve given me more feelings than I could list
··· I never thought such feelings could exist
··· It hurts to think of all the love I’ve missed
··· The most passionate woman I’ve ever kissed
······ It hurts to think of all the love I’ve missed
······ The most passionate woman I’ve ever kissed
