When was I supposed to make my entrance
How was I to know I had a chance
Now here's a guy who really thought he had it all
My heart was holding up the wall so I could dance

The last of my romances has concluded
Wars I've lost and loved have thus been fair
The battle scars I've gained have all alluded
To a decorated soldier of despair

Baby I just had to see you
Your face, your smile
Baby I just had to see you
Just for a while

I ran from love to love and lied with laughter
Not knowing that at some point I'd collide
With someone who would be my ever after
And happily would stay here by my side

Baby I just had to see you
Your face, your smile
Baby I just had to see you
Just for a while
