Lyrics: Linda Eder. How in the World.

I was so sure of ev'ry step I took
I never thought to look at all the other roads
Or to wonder where they lead
I didn't think that there was much I lacked, I had it all
In fact, I had convinced myself, there is no one that I need

How in the world did I miss this feeling?
How in the world it pass me by?
How in the world did your kiss
Completely change the world for me?

How in the world did this bliss escape me?
And all this passion I can't deny
How in the world did it take me all this time
To clearly see that you are my world all of my life

I thought I had it good, I thought I understood
All that the heart could know and all that love could be
I was content and never wished for more
My heart had locked its door
I wasn't ready for this gift you gave to me

How in the world did I miss this feeling?
How in the world it pass me by?
How in the world did your kiss
Completely change the world for me?

How in the world did this bliss escape me
And all this passion I can't deny
How in the world did it take me all this time
To clearly see that you are my world
