lyrics

Well I used to think that love was dead
maybe it was something just in my head
I went looking for it anyway
Well how was I supposed to know
How feelings for another were supposed to grow
I was on my own
You were quiet and still
sittin in the corner by the window sill
keepin to yourself
well i knew a whole lot of folks
but you caught my eye and my broken hopes
when you looked at me

And then you Smiled and set my heart on fire
standing in my way just like a trippin wire
a speed bump that picked me right back up
and now I’m fine when you come around
picking me up everytime I’m down
Can you please stay for awhile
and give me a smile

Well I couldn’t believe my eyes
I’d bought into these spoken lies
of love in just a glance
well it had to be true with you
I’d never felt these feelings it was something new
a beauty I’d never seen

And you just Smiled and set my heart on fire
standing in my way just like a trippin wire
a speed bump that picked me right back up
and now I’m fine whenever you come around
picking me up everytime I’m down
Can you please stay for awhile
and give me a smile

You broke my heart in two
and sewed it right back up
when you smiled at me
I’d never felt so free

Well you, took my heart in your hand
I was barely a boy not even a man
and I said, Girl hold on for a minute
I just want to be sure that your heart is in it
and you looked at me

and you said Smile you set my heart on fire
standing in my way just like a trippin wire
a speed bump that picked me right back up
and now I’m fine whenever you come around
picking me up everytime I’m down
Can you please stay for awhile
and give me a smile
