[Intro: Toni Braxton]
Mmm, mmm
Hey, yeah
[Verse 1: Richard Marx, Toni Braxton]
It only took a moment, a solitary glance
And I could hear the voice of rapture call
I've loved you from a distance, afraid to take a chance
But now, it seems I can't help but to fall
[Pre-Chorus 1: Toni Braxton]
Imagine my surprise
To open up my eyes
And find that you were looking back
[Chorus: Richard Marx, Toni Braxton, Both]
And suddenly, I cannot remember who I used to be
And like the rain, this yearning washes over me
And all the pain I knew before is gone
And suddenly, I'm no longer drifting on an empty sea
And now I know that I believe in destiny
And mine is waiting right here in your arms
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2: Richard Marx, Toni Braxton, Both]
I long to awake beside you and bathe in love's abyss
Washing all that's come before away
Ooh, and in that frozen moment, as I receive your kiss
There will not be words enough to say
[Pre-Chorus 2: Richard Marx, Toni Braxton]
I wanna make you melt
Touch you like no one else
And do it all again a thousand times
[Chorus: Richard Marx, Toni Braxton, Both]
And suddenly, I cannot remember who I used to be
And like the rain, this yearning washes over me
And all the pain I knew before has gone, yeah
And suddenly, I'm no longer drifting on an empty sea
And now I know that I believe in destiny
And mine is waiting right here in your arms
[Break: Richard Marx, Toni Braxton]
Oh, babe
Ooh, ooh (Yeah)
Ooh, da, doh, yeah, day
Na, na, na
[Bridge: Richard Marx, Toni Braxton]
I wanna make you melt, touch you like no one else
And do it all again a thousand times
[Chorus: Richard Marx, Toni Braxton, Both]
(Oh, suddenly)
And suddenly, I cannot remember who I used to be (Who I used to be, yeah)
And like the rain, this yearning washes over me
And all the pain I knew before is gone (All the pain I knew before has gone away)
(Ooh, baby, yeah)
And suddenly, I'm no longer drifting on an empty sea (I was drifting on an empty sea)
And now I know that I believe in destiny (Believe in destiny)
And mine is waiting right here, baby, in your arms
[Outro: Richard Marx, Toni Braxton, Both]
Ooh, ooh (Baby, yeah)
Mmm, mmm (Yeah, yeah)
In your arms
