You Had Me At 'Hello'

Love has a way of sneaking up
And biting your behind.
Love has a way of obscuring you
And making you go blind.

Love is just a melody
A song we all must sing.
An octave that we strive to reach
But fail at focusing.

When I met you it felt
Like Cupid strung his bow.
Save your sweet talking and compliments.
You had me at 'Hello'.
Something hit me there and then
And I didn't want to go.
Your voice is sweet as cherry pie,
You had me at 'Hello'.

Love has a way of ruling you
But somehow you don't care.
If it feels right, if it feels strong.
You know that he'll be there.

Love is a funny thing
A life - draining energy.
A mind boggling delirium
A vision we all must see.

When I met you it felt
Like Cupid strung his bow.
Save your sweet talking and compliments,
You had me at 'Hello'.
Something hit me there and then
And I didn't want to go.
Your voice is sweet as cherry pie
You had me at 'Hello'.

Love makes your eyes pop
The sunshine
The penny drop.
Love makes your heart swell
Your brain whir
Your mouth yell.
Love makes you laugh.
And cry
And dream
And scream
But you had me at 'Hello'

Her Halo Has Slipped

What can I say to make you listen?
When we're a thousand miles apart.
What can I do to make you hear me?
And hear whats in your heart.

I do my best to help you,
And guide you through the day.
But honey, you need to remember,
And hold on to what I say.

Because I say we're connected
Two bodies and one soul.
You're hanging on an endless thread
Unable to reach your goal.

You've got three golden wishes,
And two raw thoughts that are entwined.
You're got one basic body
Encasing one soul and one mind
And
I own nothing at all.

What can I say to make you notice?
That this life is all we've got.
And if you don't take care of it
I assure you it'll rot.

I know life can be difficult
And I know it isn't fair.
But when you need a helping hand
I assure you I'll be there.

Because I say we're connected.
Two bodies with one soul.
You're hanging on an endless thread.
Unable to reach your goal.

You've got three golden wishes,
And two raw thoughts entwined.
You've got one basic body
Encasing one soul and one mind.
And
I own nothing at all.

When we met, we just seemed to click.
Like every tock has a tick.
I'll watch over you throughout the day
You'll never make me go away.
Because every soul comes ready made
With a guardian angel attached.
And my friend, I am yours.
