It Was

I guess we guess our way through life,
how many times do we really know for sure,
i was just hoping for the best
then i woke up in those loving arms of yours,
what i felt was unmistakable
when i fell for you
(chorus)
it was real, it was magic,
it was calm, it was savage
it was cool as a breeze it was warm to the touch,
it was never enough, it was always too much,
it did all the things love does,
that's how i knew it was
who thought that i could laugh so loud,
then turn around and cry so many tears?
i used to have so many doubts,
but one by one you made them disappear,
but what i found was unbelievable,
i believe it's true
(chorus)
it was real, it was magic,
it was calm it was savage
it was cool as a breeze, it was warm to the touch,
it was never enough, it was always too much,
it did all the things love does,
that's how i knew it was
you asked what i felt when you walked through the door,
was it fear, was it clear, it was all that and more,
(chorus)
it was real, it was magic,
it was calm, it was savage,
it was cool as a breeze it was warm to the touch
it was never enough, it was always too much,
it did all the things love does,
and that's how i knew it was
that's how i knew it was,
it was, hummm
it was
