How in the World
Discovering Love's Hidden Path: 'How in the World' by Linda Eder
Lyrics
I was so sure
I was confident
Of every step I took
I was certain about each move I made
I never thought to look
I didn't consider other possibilities
At all the other roads
I didn't explore alternative paths
Or to wonder where they lead
I didn't question where those paths might lead
I didn't think
I didn't believe I lacked much
That there was much I lacked
I thought I had everything
I had it all, in fact
I convinced myself I possessed it all
I had convinced myself
I convinced myself I didn't need anyone
There is no one that I need
I believed I was self-sufficient
How in the world did I miss
How did I overlook
This feeling
This emotion
How in the world it pass me by
How did I not notice it
How in the world did your kiss
How did your kiss
Completely change the world for me
Completely change my world
How in the world did this bliss escape me
How did this happiness evade my notice
And all this passion I can't deny
And this undeniable passion
How in the world did it take me
How did it take me so long
All this time to clearly see
To see clearly
That you are my world All of my life
That you are my everything, my life
I thought I had it good
I believed I had a great life
I thought I understood
I believed I comprehended
All that the heart could know
All that the heart could feel
And all that love could be
All that love could entail
I was content
I was satisfied
And never wished for more
I didn't desire more
My heart had locked it's door
I had closed off my heart
I wasn't ready for
I wasn't prepared for
This gift you gave to me
This unexpected present from you
How in the world did I miss
How did I overlook
This feeling
This emotion
How in the world it pass me by
How did I not notice it
How in the world did your kiss
How did your kiss
Completely change the world for me
Completely change my world
How in the world did this bliss escape me
How did this happiness evade my notice
And all this passion I can't deny
And this undeniable passion
How in the world did it take me
How did it take me so long
All this time to clearly see
To see clearly
That you are my world
That you are my everything, my life
