since i laid eyes on you lyrics

(Ellen Shipley/Billy Steinberg/Sandy Stewart)

Why did I show my hand
Now you know your wish
Is my command
I never longed for things I didn't have
But that's no longer true
Since I laid eyes on you

I know I'm not the same
I don't need a fortune
Don't care about fame
But my soul is a burning flame
Can't sleep the whole night through
Since I laid eyes on you

I want your sweet caress
I dream of your tenderness
Oh I never, ever felt like this
I swear
Look what you've done for me
Oh boy, it's poetry
When I see the wind in your hair

The tears well up inside
Oh, what will turn the tide
And I've been waiting for you to decide
That you love me too
Since I laid eyes on you

What else could I do
Since I laid eyes on you

You, you, you, you
On you
Oh, yeah
Since I laid eyes
On you, you, you
