"until i met you" (corner pocket)

I used to be so fancy free,
But really lonesome as could be,
Till one lucky day, you came my way
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you.

I knew it right from the start

I used to think thered never be,
A girl whod ever care for me,
Then, what dya know, you made it so,
I never knew what love was all about,
Until I met you.

Once we start, then well never part

In my blue life,
No one at all would even care if I cried.
(hurtin inside)
In my new life,
Im walkin tall, I got a feelin of pride
Glowin inside.

And, lover, youre the reason why,
A lonely girl is ridin high
Now, who do you see, lucky as me?
I never knew what love was all about,
Until I met you.

Its cherry pink -
And apple blossom white
Thats right - pink and white
I be tellin y right
Whoda ever believed a guy that
Hustled pool was such a romantic;
He really was frantic

He pursue_________d me
Chalkin? his cue
Lemme? tell y? now, without a doubt
Gettin ready for a little romance
The rustic romeo pursued me
Now is his chance
He showed me such emotion that I finally
Thats what tdo if hes got some eyes - - - - -
Took a notion to give in
Fhittin on you

An when y took the notion
Love is a game
Did you imagine his emotion
Everybody plays it the same
Ever was the kind t go fcoolin
Its a game - y play by the rules

Did ja think he might be jivin and only foolin
Tho y know the winners are victims
Or did you appraise it as real?
An losers are fools

Did you go fwhat came?
Now that youre his
Or was love in the game?
He cn put his mind ttending t biz
If love is the answer
cause thats how it is -
Then youll never, ever be quite the same
When y find love, thats the one thing
Im sure you know that thats so
Youll be sure of -

Well I dropped mheart now an bent it
Said a few sincere words
Never dreamin that I meant it
To tell you the truth, I never,
Ever really meant to begin it

How can you explain true love?
How can I disdain true love?
Love is real exciting its so exciting - that when it
Turned me around I didnt feel like fighting

It wouldnt a caught me
Except when I saw you I was surer than sure
This really couldnt be
But whaty-know
It really was so!
Im ready fsettlin right down
No more runnin around

And thats the truth, really the truth,
Really aint puttin on no act.
Really a fact
Really, this aint no time fjivin
cause what Im tellin y really comes
Right from this heart of mine
An lemme tell y theres an awful lot o
Sacrifice t lay it on the line

Whats this thing people call love
Something nobody has too much of
This game all misunderstand, but play it

One things sure; loves what Im in
Unloose cupids bow, let it begin
Thats it! let that madness start!
There goes my heart!

Its got me stumblin, its got me mumblin
Im like a ship without a rudder,
A car without wheels
Unless y feel it, I cant reveal it
Y gotta have it happen to y
T know how it feels

One things sure; love has got me
Im as certain as certain can be
Im yours till eternity

From the day that we met
When you showed on the set
I remember it yet
I was knocked out

I took one look at you
And what else could I do
Love walked in and I knew
There was no doubt
No, no doubt

I love you, yes, I sure do, yes, I love you
Yes, you know it
I know that you knew from the start

Now we two become one
And well make it together

I never really knew what love was all about
Until I met you.

I never really knew what love was all about
Until I met you.

Good - - - shot!
