I guess you've heard, I guess you know In time I might have told you But I guess I'm too slow That's overly romantic but I know that it's real I hope you don't mind if I say what I feel It's like I'm in somebody else's dream This could not be happening to me
But you were there You were everything I'd never seen You woke me up from this long and empty sleep I was alone I opened my eyes and you were there
Don't be alarmed, no, don't be concerned I don't want to change things, Leave them just as they were I mean nothing's really different It's me who feels strange I'm always lost for words when someone mentions your name I know that I'll get over this for sure I'm not that type who dreams there could be more
But you were there And you were everything I'd never seen You woke me up from this long and empty sleep I was alone I opened my eyes and you were there
Can I take your smile home with me Or the magic in your hair
The rain has stopped, the storm has passed Look at all the colors, now the sun's here at last I suppose that you'll be leaving but I want you to know Part of you stays with me even after you go Like an actor playing someone else's scene This could not be happening to me
But you were there And you were everything I'd never seen You woke me up from this long and endless sleep I opened my eyes and now I'm not alone No, I'm not alone I opened my eyes and you were there
