You've Given Me Something - Orleans

Once there was an ocean

Covering all the land

And the future lay sleeping

Upon its sandy bed

No strong emotion

Shook my steady hand

But a longing lay

Beneath the surface of the life I led

I thought I had it all worked out

And I knew the score

Till you came along and showed me something

That meant much more

You’ve given me something

That I’ve never had before

Like the magic in the night

When I’m walking next to you

You’ve given me something

That can open any door

So open up and let me give

That magic back to you

The things that I called mine

Were the finest of the fine

With beauty, race and laughter

My life was blessed

I traveled around the planet

Acting like I ran it I had the best

I didn’t need the rest

They all thought of me as a man

Who had everything

But I never dreamed of the happiness

Your love could bring

And you’ve given me something

That I’ve never had before

Like the magic in the night

When I’m walking next to you

You’ve given me something

That can open any door

So open up your heart

And let me give

That magic back to you

You’ve given me something

That I’ve never had before

Like the magic in the night

When I’m walking next to you

There’s no doubt about it Love can open any door

So open up your heart

And let me give

That magic back to you
