Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
The face of an angel; pretty eyes that shine I lie awake at night wishing you were mine I'm standing here holding the biggest heartache in town Whenever you come around I get weak in the knees; and I lose my breath Oh I try to speak but the words won't come I'm so scared to death And when you smile the world turns upside down Whenever you come around I feel so helpless; I feel just like a kid What is it about you that makes me keep my feelings hid I wish I could tell you, bu the words can't be found Whenever you come around I get weak in the knees; and I lose my breath Oh I try to speak but the words won't come I'm so scared to death And when you smile the world turns upside down Whenever you come around And when you smile that smile The whole world turns upside down Whenever you come around Whenever you come around
