love at first sight
Michael Lyon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Might as well admit it
I'm the one who did it
Went and fell in love
What was I thinking of?
Hold on just a minute
Seems only fair to share the blame

You're beautiful, admit it
A sky that has no limit
Starlit, big and bright
Every night
Can't see no harm in it
Nothing quite like love at first sight

Soaring high go you and I
Far to fly, 'cross the sky
Don't know why it feels just right
Right as love, at first sight

Soaring high go you and I
Far to fly, 'cross the sky
Don't know why it feels just right
Right as love, at first sight

Might as well admit it
More smitten by the minute
Floating on a cloud
Is that allowed?
Don't see no harm in it
Nothing quite like love at first sight

Soaring high go you and I
Far to fly, 'cross the sky




Don't ask why it feels just right
Right as love, at first sight
