When Love Came Around :- words and music by Simon Lewis


It’s not just the way that your eyes glow
And it’s not just the way that you smile
It’s in the way that we laugh and dance ‘round naked
With the moonlight shining through the blinds


It’s not just the way that your lips move
When you tell me what you dreamed last night
It’s in the way that you listen and care how I’m feeling
When the way I’m feeling isn’t quite right


Wandering around in the half light
Safe in the shadows we’ve found
But the fortress we made wasn’t able to stop us surrendering
When love came around


It’s not just the way that this love grows
And it’s not just the way that we fly
Through worlds we’ve forgotten or seen a long time ago
Seeing life again through the eyes of a child


Wandering around in the half light
Safe in the shadows we’ve found
But the fortress we made wasn’t able to stop us surrendering
When love came around


Don’t run away
Let it happen
Let it flow through your veins
Remember this day
When we found what we’ve been searching for
The light of this candle burns brightly now


Now the walls have come tumbling down
And the fortress we made wasn’t able to stop us surrendering
When love came around
