Never seen such a beautiful girl Got me shaking inside Calling on me from deep within her eyes Not the kind you go handing around Want to keep her right there But this love it don't come as no surprise And when I saw the way that she smiled at me I knew it there and then that she was A 1 And then I felt the way she was touching me Was something I had known I was waiting upon Never seen such a beautiful girl Had me quickly untied Calling to me she made me realize Not the kind that is lost or is found She has always been there A lover needed for this soul to survive And when I saw the way that she smiled at me I knew it there and then that she was A1 And when I felt the way she got through to me Was something I had know I was waiting upon Never seen such a beautiful girl Got me shaking inside Calling on me from deep within her eyes Not the kind you go handing around Want to keep her right there But this love it don't come as no surprise
