My life used to feel so safe and secure
Bein' on my own independent and self-assured
Didn't need nobody to complicate my life
Then like a bolt out of the blue
You caught my eye...
And that's exactly what I didn't want to happen
One look was all it took and that was it
Yeah, you came along with a love so strong
My heart didn't stand a chance when you flashed that
Where ya been all my life kind of grin
And that's exactly what I didn't want to happen
But I'm glad it did
Yeah, I used to stay home watch TV by myself
Didn't have to share my Ben and Jerry's with anybody else
I used to find peace of mind in my solitude
Now I'm goin' crazy every minute without you
And that's exactly what I didn't want to happen
But you and me had to be a perfect fit
Yeah right from the get go I couldn't let go
Lookin' in your eyes it felt so right
That I said I want some more of this
And that's exactly what I didn't want to happen
But I'm glad it did
I wasn't livin' til I found your love
I didn't know that what I really needed was
Exactly what I didn't want to happen
One look was all it took and that was it
Yeah you came along with a love so strong
My heart didn't stand a chance when you flashed that
Come on over here and get me gotta have you grin
Exactly what I didn't want to happen
Oh exactly what I didn't want to happen
But I'm glad it did, glad it did
