SOMETHING IN YOUR EYES

Caught me by surprise, something in your eyes
Oh so very nice like paradise
Caught me with your charms, held me in your arms
set off my alarm in paradise

I gave up the moment that we met
and I don't have a moment I regret
I'd cheat, steal and even lie
just to see that something in your eyes

Wasn't quite prepared, couldn't help but stare
I didn't have a prayer in paradise
Gave me quite a start, looking through your heart
I knew we'd never part in paradise

Once upon a time, somewhere in my mind
happening to find paradise
Couldn't quite believe, thought you might deceive
but I can't ever leave paradise
