lyrics

What were you thinking
when you woke up in my arms for the first time? (Oh yeah)
And what were you thinking
When you looked into my eyes and saw the sunrise?
Did it make you realize what I've tried to say so long,
The distance makes me weak, but you keep me strong.
Every day apart, no matter how I miss you,
You smile at me, and I just can't resist you.
What were you thinking when you woke up in my arms?

What were you thinking
when I told you I'd be leaving on the morrow? (Oh no)
And what were you thinking
When I said to keep my heart safe and protected?
Did you think I'd throw away everything you gave to me,
When my heart was wrapped in chains, you set it free.
So keep it here with you, no matter where you roam,
'cause anywhere you are, I wanna call it home.
What were you thinking when I told you I'd be leaving?

You and me, we've got a history
of walking when we oughta run
But it can be, I'm gonna make you see,
As long as I'm your only one.

You know what I'm thinking,
I wanna keep you 'round for a long time. (I do)
That's what I was thinking
When I took you in my arms for the first time.
No matter what happens, when it comes to these two hearts,
The love we have is greater than the sum of all the parts.
You may have thought you had me wrapped around your finger,
Well look down at your hand, then look up at the singer...

See what I'm thinking,
Yes, I'm in love with you.
That's what I'm thinking,
No matter what you do,
So what were you thinking,
when you told me that you loved me too?
