Spotlight shining brightly on my face
A C#
I can see you thinking
F#m D
Yet I feel you looking my way

Empty stage

With nothing but this girl
C# F#m
Who's singing a simple melody
B E
and wearing her heart on her sleeve
C# D
And right now
F#m C#
I have you
F#m E D
For a moment I can tell I've got to
A
Cause your lips don't move
C#
And something is happening
F#m E D
Cause your eyes tell me the truth
Dm A
I've put a spell over you

Nor am I as eloquent

But just a simple melody can change the way that you see me

And right now
F#m C#
I have you
F#m E D
For a moment I can tell that I've got to

And all my life I stumble, but here I am

Just perfect

Perfect as I'll ever be

Oh oh

I have you

For a moment I can tell I've got to
