Brian McKnight - Anyway lyrics

I have been through many
Disappointments and regrets
Never knowing yet, the joy of lasting love
Now I'm reaching for your hand
On the shore of happiness oh, I acquiesce
To you, my dear, my love

You take my breath away
You're everything I desire i can't stay away
I used to say never
But I'll never say never again
Every night and day
I realize what can't be denied
I never thought I'd fall, but I fell anyway
And I know that, I know that, I know that
I never thought I'd fall, but I fell anyway

You're the perfect lover and you
Are the perfect friend
Now all that's ever been
We simply rose above and as long as we don't
Build a castle on quicksand
We'll experience and understand, oh
The pleasure of lasting love

My heart's on fire
Burning with a flame that will never die
There's a voice inside
Saying don't be afraid, don't compromise

You take my breath away
You're everything I desire i can't stay away
I used to say never
But I'll never say never again
Every night and day
Now I realize what can't be denied
I never thought I'd fall, but I fell anyway
And I know that, I know that, I know that
I never thought I'd fall, but I fell anyway

There are many, many words that I could say
Melodies I could play
Prayers that I could pray
Nothing could take your love away

You take my breath away (Away, away, away)
You're everything I desire i can't stay away
I used to say never
But I'll never say never again
Every night and day
Now I realize what can't be denied
I never thought I'd fall, but I fell anyway
And I know that, I know that, I know that
I never thought I'd fall, but I fell anyway
(I know, I know, I know)
I never thought I'd fall, but I fell anyway
And I know that, I know that, I know that
I never thought I'd fall, but I fell anyway
