Lyrics

I COULD LOVE LIKE THIS
(**Please note alternate lyric in final verse, included for younger artist who does not have children**)

verse1
I THOUGHT I KNEW ME PRETTY WELL
GOOD POINTS AND BAD
DON'T ASK I'LL NEVER TELL
WELCOME TO MY WORLD MY PERSONAL DISNEYLAND
YOU WALKED IN WITHOUT A TICKET
THAT CHANGED MY PLANS

chorus1
THOUGHT I WAS A CONFIRMED BACHELOR
AND I LOVED DATING HER AND HER
BUT I DON'T KNOW MYSELF TOO WELL I GUESS
CAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW
I COULD LOVE LIKE THIS

verse2
I'M A CREATURE OF HABIT BEEN THAT ALL MY DAYS
AIN'T STUBBORN
JUST SET IN MY WAYS
MAY BE A LITTLE SCARED LITTLE AFRAID
TO LET YOU IN
I THOUGHT YOU WOULDN'T STAY (lyric change)

chorus2
BUT I WENT FROM AN I TO AN US (lyric change)
LEARNED TO LOVE HOW TO TRUST
IN A WORLD I DIDN'T KNOW EXISTS
BUT I DIDN'T KNOW
I COULD LOVE LIKE THIS

bridge
WITH ALL MY HEART WITH ALL MY SENSES
UNCHAINED UNBROKEN NO BORDERS NO FENCES

verse3
I WOKE UP THIS MORNING SPLASHED WATER ON MY FACE
TOOK A LOOK IN THE MIRROR
THINK I SEEN A TOUCH A GRAY
MY LITTLE ONE TUGS MY SLEEVE SAYS DADDY PLEASE LET'S PLAY
(**And staring right back at me is the luckiest man today**)
CLOSED MY EYES, SMILED, AND THANKED GOD
HE PUT ME IN MY PLACE

chorus3
IT'S AN I CAN'T DESCRIBE KIND OF LOVE
IT'S A GIFT FROM ABOVE
I WONDER HOW MUCH BETTER DOES IT GET?
THERE'S NOT A MINUTE OF THIS I'D MISS
STANDIN HERE I KNOW I'M BLESSED
AND I BET I AIN'T SEEN NOTHING YET
I DIDN'T KNOW I COULD LOVE LIKE
I DIDN'T KNOW... I COULD LOVE LIKE THIS
