Enchanted

Owl City English

Verse 1

There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smilesSame old tired, lonely placeWalls of insincerityShifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw your faceAll I can say is it was enchanting to meet youYour eyes whispered "have we met?"Across the room your silhouette starts to make it's way to meThe playful conversation startsCounter all your quick remarks like passing notes in secrecyAll I can say is it was enchanting to meet youOh, Taylor, I was so enchanted to meet you too

Chorus

This night is sparkling, don't you let it goI'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way homeI'll spend forever wondering if you knewI was enchanted to meet you too

Verse 2

The lingering question kept me up2 AM, who do you love?I wondered till I'm wide awakeNow I'm pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my doorI'd open up and you would sayIt was enchanting to meet youOh, Taylor, I was so enchanted to meet you too

Chorus

This night is sparkling, don't you let it goI'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way homeI'll spend forever wondering if you knewI was enchanted to meet you too

Bridge

This is me praying that this was the very first pageNot where the story line endsMy thoughts will echo your name until I see you againThese are the words I held back as I was leaving too soonI was enchanted to meet you tooPlease don't be in love with someone elsePlease don't have somebody waiting on youPlease don't be in love with someone elsePlease don't have somebody waiting on you

Chorus

This night is sparkling, don't you let it goI'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way homeI'll spend forever wondering if you knewThis night is flawless, don't you let it goI'm wonderstruck, dancing around all aloneTaylor I'll spend my whole life wondering if you knewI was enchanted to meet you too

Outro

I was never in love with someone elseI never had somebody waiting on me'Cause you were all of my dreams come trueAnd I just wish you knewTaylor, I was so in love with you
