[Verse 1]
You and I were school kids, thinking about our future occupations
When you walked into the room
Might have been a fool but I went ahead and made some calculations
That you and me could equal something smooth
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I didn't know your name, but
I knew you were my type
When our eyes met that day I remember how I came alive
[Chorus]
I felt something good today
When you smiled and looked my way
And I know it may not seem like much to you
When the long days come it gets me through
Today I feel alright 'cause today my lover looked me in the eye
Looked me in the eye
Oh, oh
[Verse 2]
You and I were grown-ups thinking about our lives and its frustrations
Been friends for years, but nothing more
So we got a little closer, getting over fears of adorations
This could be what we were looking for
[Pre-Chorus 2]
When I put my arm around you
I wanted to make you mine
Now I cannot live without ya all because you look me in the--
[Chorus]
I felt something good today
When you smiled and looked my way
And I know it may not seem like much to you
But when the long days come it gets me through
Today and I feel alright
'Cause today my lover looked me in the eye
[Bridge]
After all that we've been through
And all your thoughts and all mine, too (and all mine, too)
Even from across the room
Now that you're forever mine
All I need to call mine, mine
Is to look you in the eyes
[Chorus]
Oh, I felt something good today
When you smiled, and looked my way
And I know it may not seem like much to you
When the long days come, it gets me through
And today I feel alright
Today I feel alright
Today I feel alright
Today I feel alright
Today I feel alright
Today I feel alright
'Cause today my lover looked me in the eye
Looked me in the eye
Oh oh
