Not What I Had In Mind

Staring at the picture I saw of you at first
Reminds me of the moment we crossed path
I knew you were completely out of my league
But my heart thinks otherwise

Told me he wants to be with you
For you're amazingly beautiful
It was a sigh of relief when you smile
And told me your name

That night I wrote your name on all the pages in my heart
Somehow it lites my whole world inside out
That's when I knew you were the stars in my sky
I was willing to spend all my night with you

I love you in a special way
My day's perfect when ever I spend it with you
I wish sometimes we don't have to say goodbye
This makes me sad and want to cry

You mean more than the world to me
Someday I will open my heart for you to see
How deep is the feeling I have for you
How you made my world beautiful
