Wasn’t Lookin

[verse one- female vocals only]
I wasn’t lookin for you that day.
Didn’t care ‘bout love, good on my own.
But there you are, across the bar.
Unhappy while on your phone.
Fate drew me in and I made the play.
Now I see you everyday.
I swore off love, it wasn’t for me.
But you change my heart internally.
I wasn’t ready for loves first strike,
Wasn’t looking for you that night.

[hook- duet]
Loves’ got a way of takin control.
Claiming hearts, making them whole.
I wasn’t lookin, but now I’m taken.
(I wasn’t lookin.)
Was tryinna stay away from love.
But you were sent from above.
Now we’re together, hearts bound forever.
I wasn’t lookin, but now I’m taken.

[verse two- male vocals only]
I wasn’t lookin, Sittin there alone.
Arguin an’ fightin on my phone.
Wasn’t lookin for anything,
‘Cept the peace that the bar brings.
My life’s full of heartaches from long ago.
Then you stepped up and said - “Hello.”
Don’t know what happened that night,
Ya won my love without a fight.
I wasn’t lookin for nothing, just stress release.
Now I got you and found my peace.

[hook- duet]
We weren’t looking for love
Just fightin to stay above.
That night our hearts awakened.
I wasn’t lookin, but now I’m taken.
(I wasn’t lookin.)
We took a chance at together,
And our rings say- “Now Forever”.
I wasn’t lookin, but now I’m taken.
Hard to see, it started with “Hello”.
We weren’t looking!
