Love, love, love...

Met you at the wrong time of my life
I thought you were somebody I used to know
You took me by surprise, don't you see it show
But I guess it's not true, he left a long time ago
And thinking it over, you don't look the same

I met you at the wrong time of my life
Met you at the wrong time of my life

I've never felt the cold like this before
Our love is growing old but it leaves me wanting more
And more
If you don't believe me just look in my eyes
You'll see a lonely girl for sure
But thinking it over I don't look the same, same, same

I met you at the wrong time of my life
Met you at the wrong time of my life
I met you at the wrong time of my life

But don't tell me it's over when it's only just begun
The days go by we get older so don't keep me waiting
Don't keep me hanging on

I met you at the wrong time of my life
Met you at the wrong time of my life

I met you at the wrong time of my life
Met you at the wrong time of my life

I met you at the wrong time of my life
Met you at the wrong time of my life...

Kim Carnes (born July 20, 1945) is an American singer-songwriter. Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, she began her career as a songwriter in the 1960s, writing for other artists while performing in local clubs and working as a session background singer with the famed Waters sisters (featured in the documentary 20 Feet from Stardom). After she signed her first publishing deal with Jimmy Bowen, she released her debut album Rest on Me in 1972. Carnes' self-titled second album primarily contained self-penned songs, including her first charting single “You’re a Part of Me”, which reached No. 35 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart in 1975. In the following year, Carnes released Sailin', which featured “Love Comes from Unexpected Places”. The song won the American Song Festival and the award for Best Composition at the Tokyo Song Festival in 1976.
