Lyrics

Liv ing in my own world;

when you take a chance.

I (D)nev er be lieved in

what I (G)could n’t see.

I nev er (D)o pened my heart

to all the pos si (G)bil i ties.

Oh,

I (Bb)know that some thing has changed; nev er felt this way.

And right here to night, this could be the (D)start of some thing new.

It feels so right to be here with you, oh.

And (D)now, look ing in your eyes, I feel in my heart

the start of some thing new.

I nev er knew that it could (G)hap pen till it hap pened to me.

Oh,

I did n’t know it be fore, but now it’s eas y to see,

oh.

It’s the (E)start of some thing new.

It feels so right to be here with you, oh.

And (E)now, look ing in your eyes,

I feel in my heart
