Baby this is not the way
It was meant to be
I didn't mean to fall in love
Just wanted you to be with me
But then you took away my heart
I'm not afraid to say, I started to fall for you
Maybe it's the way you smile
That makes me warm inside
I wish I knew but just can't say
Cause I don't know the reason why
I only know if this is love
I wanna welcome you into my world
You have become a reason to be living
This is why I won't deny
The feeling that I'm feeling in my heart
You changed my cloudy days to sunshine
My December into May
That's why I want you here beside me
Every day, every day
Maybe it's the way you smile
That makes me warm inside
I wish I knew, but just can't say
Don't know the reason why
I only know if this is love
I wanna welcome you
Into my world, into my world
You've become a reason to be living
This is why I won't deny
This feeling that I'm feeling in my heart
You changed my cloudy days to sunshine
My December into May
That's why I want you here beside me
Every day, every day
Maybe it's the way you smile
That makes me warm inside
I wish I knew, but just can't say
I Don't know the reason why
I only know if this is love
I wanna welcome you
Into my world, into my world
It was meant to be
I didn't mean to fall in love
Just wanted you to be with me
But then you took away my heart
I'm not afraid to say, I started to fall for you
Maybe it's the way you smile
That makes me warm inside
I wish I knew but just can't say
Cause I don't know the reason why
I only know if this is love
I wanna welcome you into my world
You have become a reason to be living
This is why I won't deny
The feeling that I'm feeling in my heart
You changed my cloudy days to sunshine
My December into May
That's why I want you here beside me
Every day, every day
Maybe it's the way you smile
That makes me warm inside
I wish I knew, but just can't say
Don't know the reason why
I only know if this is love
I wanna welcome you
Into my world, into my world
You've become a reason to be living
This is why I won't deny
This feeling that I'm feeling in my heart
You changed my cloudy days to sunshine
My December into May
That's why I want you here beside me
Every day, every day
Maybe it's the way you smile
That makes me warm inside
I wish I knew, but just can't say
I Don't know the reason why
I only know if this is love
I wanna welcome you
Into my world, into my world
