Life can be so simple if we'd all just learn to pray
And now she's takin' over me
And I could never express the way I felt before tonight
I can't believe her when she says
She's reading from a chapter that she sometimes calls her own
And it still feels just like the day it started
I think I'll believe her when she says
'Cause I never could find the words to write you
(She's workin' overtime)
This girl I once rejected has now become the girl of my dreams
God must have heard my prayers last night
And it still feels just like the day it started
And now she's taken over me
Life can be so simple if we'd all just learn to pray
I've never met anyone like you
She's got every little thing I wanted
She's got perfect reasons, say she loves to talk to Jesus
She's not an ordinary girl, see it in her eyes
She's not an ordinary girl, see it in her eyes
She's been on my mind
She's got every little thing I wanted
She sits there all alone
(she's workin' overtime)
And I could never express the way I felt before tonight
I'll say goodbye to the broken hearted
She's got perfect reasons, say she loves to talk to Jesus
I'll say goodbye to the broken hearted
So say goodbye to the broken hearted
And I could never express the way I felt before tonight
Every little thing I wanted
I'm just an ordinary boy
And it still feels just like the day it started
I'm just an ordinary boy
She's been on my mind
