Lyrics

[A different version of this song may be found in Country Midtempo III.]

VERSE
When you came along, I fell really hard for you
And you seemed to fall very hard for me, too
We were havin’ fun on our island in the sun
But together was not connected with forever

VERSE
But then, after a while, you started to change
You lost your smile, and the love became strange
When you looked at me one night and said you needed more
I saw the light ’cause you’re all I’m lookin’ for

CHORUS
I never looked at love your way before
Love was fleeting, hearts beating, nothing more
But now I see that love can’t be a simple revolving door
No, I never looked at love your way before

SOLO/VERSE
I don’t know what you saw in me that kept you here
I see now the love I expressed was a very thin veneer
Love is not a casual thing that happens only in the night
It’s enduring, reassuring, a million points of light

Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Now we’re lookin’ at love, same page, same book
