High Valley - Exactly What I Didn't Want To Happen lyrics

rate me

(Danny Wells/ Whitney Duncan /Richard Fagen)

My life used to feel so safe and secure

Bein' on my own independent and self-assured

Didn't need nobody to complicate my life

Then like a bolt out of the blue

You caught my eye ...

And that's exactly what I didn't want to happen

One look was all it took and that was it

Yeah, you came along with a love so strong

My heart didn't stand a chance when you flashed that

Where ya been all my life kind of grin

And that's exactly what I didn't want to happen

But I'm glad it did

Yeah, I used to stay home watch TV by myself

Didn't have to share my Ben and Jerry's with anybody else

I used to find peace of mind in my solitude

Now I'm goin' crazy every minute without you

And that's exactly what I didn't want to happen

But you and me had to be a perfect fit

Yeah right from the get go I couldn't let go

Lookin' in your eyes it felt so right

That I said I want some more of this

And that's exactly what I didn't want to happen

But I'm glad it did

I wasn't livin' til I found your love

I didn't know that what I really needed was

Exactly what I didn't want to happen

One look was all it took and that was it

Yeah you came along with a love so strong

My heart didn't stand a chance when you flashed that

Come on over here and get me gotta have you grin

Exactly what I didn't want to happen

Oh exactly what I didn't want to happen

But I'm glad it did, glad it did
