You walked into my life 
On the fifth of December 
It was cold and dark outside 
I seem to remember 
I was fine, pre-occupied 
I guess I wasn't looking 
But then you stared into my eyes 
And nothin's been the same again 

Chorus 
Oh I can't believe it's over 
Before it's begun 
And I can't believe I lost you 
Before you'd been won 
You tell me I'm a catch 
But I'm just not your match 
Now I'm cryin' in my coffee cup 
I wish that I could be enough for you 

We talked and talked for hours 
I seem to recall 
I missed the train, walked in the rain 
But it didn't matter 
I was sold on you 
On the very first view 
If you'd been on auction 
I'd bid out of reach for you 

What is it that you need in somebody 
What can I do to impress you 
What if I changed my name 
And died my hair 
Could you fall in love with me 
With my new identity 
Cause I can't surrender 
Just because you said it's over 

Repeat chorus
