How in the World - Linda Eder

I was so sure

Of ev’ry step I took

I never thought to look

At all the other roads

Or to wonder where they lead

I didn’t think

That there was much I lacked

I had it all, in fact

I had convinced myself

There is no one that I need

How in the world did I miss

This feeling

How in the world it pass me by

How in the world did your kiss

Completely change the world for me

How in the world did this bliss escape me

And all this passion I can’t deny

How in the world did it take me

All this time to clearly see

That you are my world All of my life

I thought I had it good

I thought I understood

All that the heart could know

And all that love could be

I was content

And never wished for more

My heart had locked it’s door

I wasn’t ready for

This gift you gave to me

How in the world did I miss

This feeling

How in the world it pass me by

How in the world did your kiss

Completely change the world for me

How in the world did this bliss escape me

And all this passion I can’t deny

How in the world did it take me

All this time to clearly see

That you are my world
