If I Know What Love Is It's Because of You

IF I KNOW WHAT LOVE IS, 
IT’S BECAUSE OF YOU

THE DAY WE MET I CAN’T FORGET, YOUR SMILE AND GRATITUDE
FOR DID I KNOW WHAT WAS TO COME, YOU CHANGED MY ATTITUDE 
I LOOKED AT YOU LIKE EVERYONE BUT NOTICED YOU COULDN’T SEE
WAY BEFORE YOU CAME MY WAY, I WANTED YOU FOR ME

AS TIME WENT ON YOU TOUCHED MY HEART STEP BY STEP EACH DAY
I WASN’T EASY TO CONVINCE, BUT YOU ALWAYS HAD A WAY
YOU WOULD SMILE WHEN I WAS NEAR; I KNEW I CAUGHT YOUR EYE
YOU GAVE ME SUCH A HAPPY HEART, I FELT LIKE I COULD FLY

THE ONLY WISH I EVER HAD, WAS TO FIND TRUE LOVE
UNTIL THIS TIME IT’S BEEN SO HARD, FOR ME TO RISE ABOVE

  I HAVE SO MUCH TO THANK YOU FOR; I DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START
BUT LET’S BEGIN LIKE WE ALWAYS DO, BY TALKING HEART TO HEART

AT FIRST I COULDN’T LOOK AT YOU, I WAS SCARED THAT YOU WOULD SEE
FOR IF YOU LOOKED INTO MY EYES, YOU MIGHT SEE THE REAL ME

YOU HAD A WAY ABOUT YOU, I WANTED SO MUCH TO LEARN
YOU TOOK ME BY THE HAND AND SAID, HONEY....IT’S YOUR TURN

I DIDN’T KNOW WHERE YOU WERE TAKING ME, THOUGH IT WAS QUITE 
CLEAR
THE DAY YOU WALKED INTO MY LIFE, IT’S YOU I WANTED TO BE NEAR

WE WALKED TOGETHER SIDE BY SIDE, DAYS TURNED INTO YEARS
AS TIME WENT ON, YOU WON MY HEART AND TOOK AWAY MY FEARS

WE HAVE THIS SPECIAL “SOULMATE” LOVE THAT TIME CAN’T TAKE AWAY
SO I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR HAND FOREVER, ONLY IF I MAY

YOUR TOUCH IS MY THERAPY; THE TRUTH IS IN YOUR EYES
YOU WILL FOREVER HAVE MY HEART, AND THIS I CAN’T DENY

LOVE FOREVER, ROSEMARIE
