I ASKED YOU WHAT’S YOUR NAME, 

YOU SAID YOURS IF YOU WANT ME

I ASKED YOU WHAT YOU WANT OUT OF LIFE, 

AND YOU SAID YOU HERE BESIDE ME

I ASKED YOU ABOUT THE WEATHER

YOU SAID IT’S HOT TODAY THAT IS TRUE 

BUT IT DOESN’T COMPARE TO ME

I’M BURNING FOR YOU

YOU LOOKED INTO MY EYES

AND REPLIED BLUE, 

BUT NOT AS BLUE AS ME WITHOUT YOU

YOU TOOK ME BY SURPRISE 

WHEN YOU SAID I LOVE YOU

YOU WANTED TO SHAKE MY HAND HELLO

THEN YOU TOLD ME YOU’RE NEVER LETTING GO

YOU WANTED ME TO DANCE, THEN YOU TOLD ME YOU COULD SHOW ME TRUE ROMANCE

I ASKED YOU SHOULD I TAKE THE CHANCE

YOUR REPLY WAS THERE IS NO CHANCE FOR YOU

I’M GOING TO MAKE EVERY DREAM YOU HAVE COME TRUE

NOW AS I TURN TO SAY GOODNIGHT I SEE TEARS FALLING FROM YOUR EYES

AND I WIPE THEM AWAY THEN KISS YOU ON THE CHEEK

BEFORE I WALK AWAY THE LAST WORDS I HEAR YOU SAY, DO YOU BELIEVE IN FOREVER

AND I REPLY, I DIDN’T BEFORE I MET YOU, 

I DIDN’T BEFORE TONIGHT
