She has dark brown eyes
and a smile that would make the angels sing.
He sits down right next to her
and grabs her hand as he starts to sing.

Tell me what you thought of
when you first saw me?
Was i just another boy
in the background of the scene?
Or did i strike up something in you
that could make everything
seem like God's honest truth?
Tell me what you think of
when you think of me.
Cause lately all I think of
is how to make you happy.
Let me show you a world
where everything you see is real.
A place where no one else can go
and we can run for the hills.
Let me show you a place
where dreams constantly come true.
Cause for this first night
it's all about me and you.

She shed a single tear
and the last note left his lips.
She knew exactly what to say
but couldn't find the words to fit.
She looked straight into his deep blue eyes
and wiped that single tear from her own.
She looked at him and said
come on you know the words.
She grabbed his hand
and to his surprise she started to sing.

Tell me what you thought of
when you first saw me?
Was i just another girl
for you to come and sweep off her feet?
Or did i strike up something in you
that could make everything
seem like God's honest truth?
Tell me what you think of
when you think of me.
Cause lately all I think of
is how to make you happy.
Let me show you a world
where everything you see is real.
A place where no one else can go
and we can run for the hills.
Let me show you a place
where dreams constantly come true.
Cause for this first night
it's all about me and you.

They dropped the guitar
and headed for the door.
Out into the world
for everyone to see.
That so much can come
from just looking deep
into someone's eyes.
Cause if it's only for tonight
as least they can say they tried.
