Lyrics
You, you're always on my mind
With very breath I find, it's all for you
There when I needed love, sent from the stars above
I need you
Part of me still refuses to believe
In this world I found a lucky star
Meant for me, But here you are
You have me, And I have you
I'm astonished, amazed, and more
Allowing my heart to soar, Knowing our love is true,
And wondering how you knew, But that's just you
I love you
We can say as the years go by
When Cupid's sweet arrow flies, his aim is completely true
And how could my heart resist, when it never wanted to
But God didn't hesitate when somehow he brought me you
