Lyrics
It can be strange in the world we live in

So many things are not how they appear

We sit and talk of what it doesn't matter

The meaning of the words we use hides behind the sound

Yet still it takes me by surprise

How the feeling overtakes me and fills my mind

With thoughts which even now I can't control

How simple words and gestures make the world seem right?

No matter what they say

No matter what they say

It's hard to believe once we met as strangers

Not knowing of the life that we would share

You lead me on through new ways unfamiliar

Or down a road we traveled many times before

Yet still it takes me by surprise

How the feeling overtakes me and fills my mind

With thoughts which even now I can't control

How simple words and gestures make the world seem right?

No matter what they say

No matter what they say

The years go by older yet no wiser

Our hearts and minds remain as they once were

And after all the time that we have been together

So many times we must have been this way before

Yet still it takes me by surprise

How the feeling overtakes me and fills my mind

With thoughts which even now I can't control

How simple words and gestures make the world seem right?

No matter what they say

No matter what they say
