Lyrics[]
Since I was a small boy
I've always been alone
I'm trying so hard to find someone
I could call my own
People that I looked at
Were always twos and three
Always on the outside
Nobody wanted me
Am I heading in the right direction
For your loving and affection
Is this going to be a brand-new start
Is this the way to your heart
When you came along girl
You were different from the rest
Never tried to hurt me
Like so many girls before
Made me feel important
Something special in your eye
Knowing that you care for me
Has made me come alive
Am I heading in the right direction
For your loving and affection
Is this going to be a brand-new start
Is this the way to your heart
Day to day I hope and pray
That this feeling is really going to grow
And I know
Now that I'm a man
Now that you are here
Changes all around me
Going to wipe away my tears
No more pain and heartache
No more sleepless nights
We're going to stay together
For the rest of our lives
Don't you know that we're
Am I heading in the right direction
For your loving and affection
Is this going to be a brand-new start
Is this the way to your heart
