Love walked right in
And drove the shadows away.
Love walked right in
And brought my sunniest day.
Oh, then and there I found a world completely new
When love walked in with you!

Nothing seemed to matter any more,
Didn't care what I was heading for!
Time was standing still,
No-one counted till
There came a knock knock knocking at my door!

Love walked right in
And drove the shadows away.
Love walked right in
And brought my sunniest day.
One magic moment and my heart seemed to know
That love said hello,
Though not a word was spoken!

One look and I forgot the gloom of the past.
One look and I had found my future at last.
Oh, then and there I found a world completely new
When love walked in with you!
