Song Lyrics

The summer is almost over and I haven't met him yet
I sit here all alone, right by the phone
Who would ever guess'

With my heart as big as the ocean
And with all this love to share
Couldn't find someone right to light up my life
But then I saw you standing there
Don't you know that'

It only took a minute
The moment I looked in your eyes
It only took a minute
To see all those love signs
I'd never thought I'd find

I can't believe how you touch me
You're like a breeze blowing through my hair
I get a rush when you tell me to hush
And you take me there

You're my morning coffee
And baby, I'm your easy chair
There's no way this could be a love fantasy
When I know we've got the real affair and even though

It only took a minute
The moment I looked in your eyes
It only took a minute
To see all those love signs
I'd never thought I'd find

I'm caught up in it
I'm caught up
All at once I knew inside, yeah

It only took a minute
You're the love of, you're the love of
You're the love of my life

Ooh, I love you
I love you baby
You're the one for me

Ooh, you know I thought it was over
'Cause nobody would come my way
The door to love that I almost closed
Was the same door you opened today
Oh, oh, oh

Only took a minute
Only took a minute
It only took a minute
Only took a minute
Only took a minute
Only took a minute
Only took a minute
