Words by Gardner Cole
Music by Gardner Cole & David Gamson
I’ve tried so many times
To Keep romance alive
I guess I never really had true love
Then you came my way
And nothing’s been the same
Now you’re all I’m ever thinking of
If I had the say you’d be staying
[Chorus:]
Hey… I’ve been here before
Looking in your eyes see just a little more… I said
Hey… I’ve been here before
Someone must have sent you down to brighten up my life
One in a million boy
You fill me up with joy
Sometimes I don’t believe in accidents
I know we’re meant to be
It’s so plain to see
From here on out it where the fun begins
If I have the say you’ll be staying
[Chorus:]
Hey… I’ve been here before
Looking in your eyes see just a little more… I say
Hey… I’ve been here before
Someone must have sent you down to brighten up my life
Sent you down to brighten up my life
[Bridge:]
Sometimes the obvious is hard to see
Now here you are standing right in front of me
I could have missed my one and only
Chance for love, chance for love… Oh!
Hey… I’ve been here before
Looking in your eyes see just a little more… I said
Hey… I’ve been here before
Someone must have sent you down to brighten up my
Sent you down to brighten up my life
[Chorus:]
