It was only a smile but my heart it went wild
Just a delicate kiss, anyone could've missed
Your hand slipped into mine
You spent the night in my bed,
"Well, I wasn't expecting that"
I thought love wasn't meant to last,
I thought you were just passing through
If I ever get the nerve to ask
What did I get right to deserve somebody like you?
It was only a word, it was almost mis-heard
But it came without fear,
A month turned into a year
I thought love wasn't meant to last,
Honey, I thought you were just passing through
If I ever get the nerve to ask
What did I get right to deserve somebody like you?
Isn't it strange how a life can be changed
In the flicker of the sweetest smile
We were married in spring
You know I wouldn't change a thing
Without that innocent kiss, what a life I'd have missed
If you'd not took a chance on a little romance
When I wasn't expecting that
Time doesn't take long, three kids up and gone
When the nurses they came, said it's come back again
Then you closed your eyes, you took my heart by surprise
