I was alone thinkin' I was just fine I wasn't lookin' for anyone to be mine I thought love was just a fabrication A train that wouldn't stop at my station Home, alone, that was my consignment Solitary confinement So when we met I was skirting around you I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you (3x) I didn't know I was looking for love (2x) 'cause there I stood and I would Oh I wonder could I say what I felt And not be misunderstood A thousand stars came into my system I never knew how much I had missed them Slap on my map on my heart you landed I was coy but you made me candid And now the planets circle around you I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you baby(3x) I didn't know I was looking for love (2x) So we build from here with love the foundation In a world of tears, one consolation Now you're here there's a full brass band Playin' in me like a wonderland And if you left I would be two foot small And every tear would be a waterfall Soundless boundless I surround you I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you I just didn't know I didn't know I was looking for love until I found you I didn't know I was looking for love I just didn't know until I found you baby until I found you I didn't know I was looking for love Until I found you
