John Michael Montgomery - How Was I To Know

(Blair Daly/Will Rambeaux)

Well I hoped and I prayed, I loved you from afar
I cried, and I dreamed, wished on every star
But nothin` I`d do got me closer to you
So I locked all my feelings inside

Then one night across a crowded room
You looked my way, your eyes held something new
You walked right up to me and smiled tenderly
And your words came as such a surprise

Well how was I to know
You never let it show
What a beauty like you might see
In a poor boy like me
How could I have seen
You walk out of my dreams
Shine your light on my sleepin` heart
And into my soul
How was I to know

You took my hand and led me out the door
We talked and we laughed
`Bout all the times before
When two lonely people so much in love
Passed like ships in the night

Well how was I to know
You never let it show
What a beauty like you might see
In a poor boy like me
How could I have se en
You walk out of my dreams
Shine your light on my sleepin` heart
And into my soul
How was I to know

How could I have seen
You walk out of my dreams
Shine your light on my sleepin` heart
And into my soul
How was I
How was I to know

Oooh
Oooh
Ooooooooh Oh Oh
