We Didn't See it Coming

You took your golden arrow 
and you aimed it at my heart; 
I didn't see it coming 
but I felt our loving start. 

It began a gentle ripple 
that spread throughout my soul. 
It left me feeling happy 
and it made my life seem whole. 

Then you went and touched me, 
as only lover's do; 
my world became a better place 
all because of you. 

My hopes became your promises, 
our dreams were uncompared. 
With the loving that you gave to me 
and all the times we shared. 

So keep it coming always, 
let our candle forever burn. 
We've found true love's beginnings, 
and now we have to learn. 

To hold on to each other 
and listen to our hearts. 
We didn't see it coming 
but we felt our loving start.
