Song lyrics
Please forgive me
If I act a little strange
For I know not what I do.
Feels like lightning running through my veins
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you

Help me out here
All my words are falling short
And there's so much I want to say
Want to tell you just how good it feels
When you look at me that way
When you look at me that way

Throw a stone and watch the ripples flow
Moving out across the bay
Like a stone I fall into your eyes
Deep into that mystery
Deep into some mystery

I got half a mind to scream out loud
I got half a mind to die
So I won't ever have to lose you girl
Won't ever have to say goodbye
I won't ever have to lie
Won't ever have to say goodbye

Whoa whoa whoa I
Whoa whoa whoa I
Whoa whoa whoa I

Please forgive me
If I act a little strange
For I know not what I do
Feels like lightning running through my veins
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you
Everytime I look at you

This is one of my favorite songs of all time. The lyrics, the vocals and everything combined makes for an amazing, beautiful song. It's as if Gray is telling a story, and it is compelling from beginning to end.

Hey I just replied on that other post, before I saw this one! I LOVE THIS SONG, especially when the guitar starts....
It reminds me of Arizona, and my best friends, since we listened to that cd a lot when we went to visit them
