I dreamed of a smile Long before it ever shone my way I dreamed of it night and day like a sun that never sets Over straight and crooked miles Falling out of favor Wondering where was love, it hadn't happened yet Ooo, baby I missed you before we ever met When things were looking down My heart would always find the words to say In times when I'd lose my way In times when I'd forget That love was all around And fought for my attention every day Things went on this way for a thousand years I guess Ooo, baby I missed you before we ever met Ooo, baby I missed you before, before we ever met
