i thank you

it's quite the predickement 
we find ourselves in 
love was just a  gamble 
i never wanted to get in 
but the hand that you dealt me 
i've never played those cards before 
i know i can't play this game with you 
cause after the first night 
i usually like to fold 

i think i'm falling in love 
and it's scaring me to death 
whenever i'm around you 
i'm always short of breath 
and i've never had this strange feeling 
i've been feeling inside 
you've touched me 
where no has before 
you're the first love of my life 

i can't wait to see you 
and i never want to let you go 
i think of you 23 hours a day 
the other waiting by the phone 
i tried to say all the right words 
to somehow corrupt your mind 
but you did that special something 
to get the three words out of my mouth 

i think i'm falling in love 
and it's scaring me to death 
whenever i'm around you 
i'm always short of breath 
and i've never had this strange feeling 
i've been feeling inside 
you've touched me 
where no has before 
you're the first love of my life 

i was always as numb 
as a pain killer 
and i've never said i love you 
to anyone before 
i've always been the predator 
going in for the score 
before meeting you 
i was living one big lie 
but i thank you 
because falling in love with you 
was the best thing in my life
