lyrics

It only seemed like an ordinary night
But don’t they all when you’ve got nothing special in your sight?
And all at once the Universe began to sway
And I lost my balance
And everything changed

The night you touched my hand
And you didn’t let go
You touched my hand
And now I know

I had it thought out that I was on my own
The past had taught me it was better that way—that’s what I was shown
But you didn’t know that, so you didn’t care
You just walked right in through the open door
On the clear winter air

The night you touched my hand
And you didn’t let go
You touched my hand
And it was then I’d know

I know you… Better than I know myself most days
You knew me… When you saw behind my hidden ways

The night you touched my hand
And I didn’t let go
The night you touched my hand
And now we know

You see only me
I see only you
We were meant to be
How was I possible before you?

Time stands still for me when I’m with you
Say you’ll still be mine should the moon
Fall from the velvet sky to touch your face
No other star above can eclipse your grace
Cause everything changed…

The night you touched my hand
And I didn’t let go
The night you touched my hand
And now I know
