Lyrics

It Only Took a Minute

[Verse 1]

Don't tell me how I had a vision

That this day would come to be

Call it luck, call it intuition

Here I am (Here we are)

Isn't that enough

For a little bit of reality?

Fate is good, fate can be real

If you believe it's what you feel

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, what a moment

When I looked into your eyes

I knew I got the prize

Oh baby, what a sweet surprise

[Chorus]

It only took a minute

Baby, to let you in my life

It only took a minute

For me to realize

It only took a minute

And I knew just what to do

It only took a minute

To fall in love with you

[Verse 2]

Time and time again

Boy, I've always been

The only one to think things through

You got a hold of me

Set me free

Who would have known

Right out of the blue?

I discovered the magic of all my dreams that night

With just one look at you

I knew that everything would be alright

[Chorus]

It only took a minute

Baby, to let you in my life

It only took a minute

For me to realize

It only took a minute

And I knew just what to do

It only took a minute

To fall in love with you

[Bridge]

Here I am, isn't that a vision?

Here I am, isn't that a vision?

Oh, what a moment

When I looked into your eyes

I knew I got the prize

Oh, baby what a sweet surprise

[Chorus]

It only took a minute

Baby, to let you in my life

It only took a minute

For me to realize

It only took a minute

And I knew just what to do

It only took a minute

To fall

It only took a minute

Baby, to let you in my life

It only took a minute

For me to realize

It only took a minute

And I knew just what to do

It only took a minute

To fall in love with you

It only took a minute

Baby, to let you in my life

It only took a minute

For me to realize

It only took a minute

And I knew just what to do

It only took a minute

To fall in love with you
