I did not ask for this
How dare it happen to me
What was wrong with peace
And quiet tranquility...
It was a little tough for me
My life I could no longer bear
At that time in you
A friend I found so rare.
You lifted me up. dusted me off
And set me on my feet
You helped me to be strong again
With kid gloves I was treat.
You did the very best for me
As only a friend like you could
You made me feel so special
If I could show you I would.
Then somehow it happened
Somewhere along the way
That which I now tell you
The words I cannot say.
I have fallen Deeply in love
By Cupid's arrow I have been hit
I think God must be laughing
Being a God of such wit.
I did not ask for this
How dare it happen to me
What was wrong with peace
and quiet tranquility...
I did not pray for love
I only asked for it to be fair
It was never my intent
To allow myself to care.
I just wanted to shut myself off
From the world I felt barred
Now you are in my life
I realise I have fallen hard.
I think about you all the time
My life with you I wish to share
My future I'm constantly planning
And you are always there.
I have found such joy in you
But it hurts to be apart
God has really shaken me
When he allowed me to open up my heart.
When I needed a friend the most
Into my life you came
I really didnt mean to fall in love
Now I pray you feel the same.
I did not ask for this
How dare it happen to me
What was wrong with peace
And quiet tranquility...
