I do the Normal

I'm okay, I tell my self on a day
to day basis
I do the normal
go to work, wash my hair,
and drive my car...
but when I see you
something happens to me

Each day that passes from
that day you told
me we're through,
I'm such a tiny bit
better and such a good liar
 I do the normal
go to the store
wash my clothes and
brush my hair
but when you walk into
the room, something
happens to me

it's the way you look
or how you tip your head
the swagger in your walk
or your every day down
to business way
your eyes that search
for mine or
your skin like caramel
on a Sunday afternoon
it's the tone in 
your voice and
your smile that 
lights up my life
and no matter when or what
you're coming or
going
I get that feeling inside and
not a single soul will
ever take it away

And the normal becomes
me and when I
dream, you're there
every minute, every day
loving me loving you
  
I know some day this 
will come to the end
of something more glorious then
I could ever imagine and I
will die just a little more inside
but for now
I won't be letting you go
not in a million years
as I do my normal
as I love you 
when you walk 
into a room
