I knew you were the one
My heart was overcome
The day I looked into your eyes
The feeling so surreal
Like time was standing still
When you said you would be mine

Oh, you are a miracle
You’re sweeter than I’ve ever dreamed
You’re so much more than beautiful
How can it be that you belong to me

So walk with me a while
And we will spend our lives
Learning the mysteries of love
And through the darkest nights
We’ll hold each other tight
I promise that will be enough

Oh girl, you are more than beautiful
How can this be, that you belong to me
Oh, you belong to me
I love you, I love you, I love you
Girl, I love you
Oh, you are, you’re more than beautiful
How can this be, that you belong to me

Behind the Song:
“I’ve had all these love songs for Deb, but I don’t think I’ve really specifically written one that went back to how we met. I’ve told the story a million times: I was at the Benson Record Company, I called my mom, I’d seen the girl I’m gonna marry, still haven’t met her, she’s in the women’s restroom. So I’m hanging out at the women’s restroom at Benson Record Company, she walks out, she’s got jeans on, a T-shirt, 5’-3”, 100 pounds, I just thought, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m gonna spend the rest of my life with this girl and she doesn’t even know it.’ I said, ‘Hey, haven’t I seen you somewhere before?’ Or some stupid line. And she went out with me three nights later. Then the song scoots ahead to when she said yes. It wasn’t in the moonlight, wasn’t on a mountain top. She came to my place one night, we had dinner, we were sitting there with the dog, and I said, ‘You think we’ll get married one day?’ ‘I don’t know. Maybe.’ I said, ‘You wanna get married?’ She says, ‘Yeah.’ I said, ‘Let’s get married.’ She said, ‘OK.’ You know how everybody comes up with these romantic things and the moonlight—open five boxes to finally get to the ring? I didn’t even have a ring. I just had to write about it.” - Michael W. Smith
