When I Saw You

When I Saw You
When I came down those stairs
When I saw you
My world spun around me
I thought I was dreaming

I thought I’d never see you again
And when you pulled me into your arms
I thought I’d never be happier

I had reason to believe
That you didn’t want me
That you didn’t care
Whether I lived or died

But everything changed
When I saw you

I don’t care if you don’t love me
The way you did before
I still love you the way I did
Before you left for war
And as long as we’re still friends
I couldn’t ask for more
