i ve been here before

Vonda Shepard

words by Gardner Cole
music by Gardner Cole & David Gamson

I ve tried so many times
To Keep romance alive
I guess I never really had true love
Then you came my way
And nothing s been the same
Now you re all I m ever thinking of

If I had the say you d be staying

(Chorus)

Hey...I ve been here before
Looking in your eyes see just a little more...I said
Hey...I ve been here before
Someone must have sent you down to brighten up my life

One in a million boy
You fill me up with joy
Sometimes I don t believe in accidents
I know we re meant to be
It s so plain to see
From here on out it where the fun begins

If I have the say you ll be staying

(Chorus)

Hey...I ve been here before
Looking in your eyes see just a little more...I say
Hey...I ve been here before
Someone must have sent you down to brighten up my life

Sent you down to brighten up my life

(Bridge)
Sometimes the obvious is hard to see
Now here you are standing right in front of me
I could have missed my one and only
Chance for love, chance for love...oh!

Hey...I ve been here before
Looking in your eyes see just a little more...I said
Hey...I ve been here before
Someone must have sent you down to brighten up my

Sent you down to brighten up my life

(Chorus)
