Encore

My heart was in the lost and found.

I saw you looking when you came around.

I stole a breath and held it all inside.

Then you smiled at me and changed my life.

Refrain: 

You were the dream I lived and hoped for.

My heart was begging for an encore.

I knew this dream could live forevermore.

I’m singing songs I never sang. 

Life with you has been a sweet refrain.

I feel the rhythm and the harmony.

We sang on key and found the melody.

Refrain: 

With curtains drawn and lights down low,

Our song is playing on the radio.

We sway together then I’m in your arms.

Ribbons, bows and lace, if that’s not charm.

Refrain: 

You were the dream I lived and hoped for.

My heart was begging for an encore.

I knew this dream could live forevermore.
