I was doin’ okay, by my self I would say
‘til your glance turned my way I was fine,
wasn’t lonely or sad, never felt quite so bad
As I do since I know you’re not mine,
My friends told me be careful,
Her eyes will drive you mad,
And you’ll be lost forever,
Though you won’t be the last.
When I met you I fell like a stone in a well,
Like a night on a cold winter’s day,
What the hell could I do when confronted with you anyway?
I’m not one of those guys who’ll deceive you with lies,
Who’ll abuse you and promise to be,
Something they’re not. You see what you’ve got,
Hope it’s me!
I was feelin’ just fine, I had nothing but time,
Put my heart on the line when we met,
You were straight from a dream, or a marvelous meme,
On that day that I’ll never forget,
My friends told me “be careful, her eyes will drive you mad,
And you’ll be lost forever, you won’t be the last.”
I’m not famous or rich but I gave my best pitch,
With the hope that we’ll soon be a thing.
There is no other way that I know what to say
Than this song that you hear my heart sing
My friends told me “be careful, her eyes will drive you mad,
And you’ll be lost forever, you won’t be the last.”
When I met you I fell like a stone in a well,
Like a night on a cold winter’s day.
What the hell could I do when confronted with you anyway?
I’m not one of those guys who’ll deceive you with lies,
Who’ll abuse you and promise to be,
Something they’re not. You see what you’ve got,
Hope it’s me!
