My Heart Had Quietly Chosen You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some days the world just rushes by And no one stops to look around But heaven has a gentle way Of setting something precious down At Whole Foods out in Glendale, love, I saw you and I knew somehow [Chorus] You're special, and the whole sky knows A light that only grows and grows With faith and hope you carry on You're peace when all my peace is gone Elizabeth, you're heaven sent My answered prayer, my sweet amen [Verse 2] From Tehran's mountains, you came far Armenian and Persian grace A little Russian in your fire The whole world shining in your face A year went by before I knew My heart had quietly chosen you [Chorus] You're special, and the whole sky knows A light that only grows and grows With faith and hope you carry on You're peace when all my peace is gone Elizabeth, you're heaven sent My answered prayer, my sweet amen [Bridge] I saw your heart break saying goodbye To Fluffy, little snow white friend And all I wanted was to hold Each tear until the hurting ends [Verse 3] So I sat down and wrote his story Fluffy, A Gift From God, for you 'Cause every gift that heaven gives Still lives in everything we do Now healing comes like morning light And love will see us through [Chorus] You're special, and the whole sky knows A light that only grows and grows With faith and hope we carry on You're peace when all my peace is gone Elizabeth, you're heaven sent My answered prayer, my sweet amen [Outro] Some days the world just rushes by But I'll keep stopping, just for you Elizabeth, you're special And heaven knows it's true
