Orleans - You've Given Me Something lyrics

Once there was an ocean Covering all the land And the future lay sleeping Upon its sandy bed No strong emotion Shook my steady hand But a longing lay Beneath the surface of the life I led I thought I had it all worked out And I knew the score Till you came along and showed me something That meant much more You've given me something That I've never had before Like the magic in the night When I'm walking next to you You've given me something That can open any door So open up and let me give That magic back to you The things that I called mine Were the finest of the fine With beauty, race and laughter My life was blessed I traveled around the planet Acting like I ran it I had the best I didn't need the rest They all thought of me as a man Who had everything But I never dreamed of the happiness Your love could bring And you've given me something That I've never had before Like the magic in the night When I'm walking next to you You've given me something That can open any door So open up your heart And let me give That magic back to you You've given me something That I've never had before Like the magic in the night When I'm walking next to you There's no doubt about it Love can open any door So open up your heart And let me give That magic back to you
