That Half Closed Eye

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It was cold that December night, Strings of color, candlelight, Just a party, just a crowd, Then a laugh that rang out loud. Some kind of magic filled the room, The moment that I first met you. [Chorus] And I fell, oh I fell, For a beautiful heart and a story to tell, Bright blonde hair and that half-closed eye, That silly grin beneath the sky. Chantelle, you're my joy, you're my song, The place where I finally belong. [Verse 2] We talked of powder, mountain air, Of songs that Panic played out there, Aspen snow beneath our feet, Miami sun and city heat. Lazy Sundays, dinners slow, A thousand roads I want to go. [Chorus] And I fell, oh I fell, For a beautiful heart and a story to tell, Bright blonde hair and that half-closed eye, That silly grin beneath the sky. Chantelle, you're my joy, you're my song, The place where I finally belong. [Bridge] She loves a good "Shocker," she loves to dance, She'll take on the world, she never leaves it to chance. And this week your boy heads off on his own, But love, you'll never walk that road alone. [Verse 3] You made me better, made me whole, You brought the light back to my soul. So keep on loving who you are, That giving heart, that guiding star. Through every season, every mile, I'll thank the Lord for that first smile. [Chorus] 'Cause I fell, oh I fell, For a beautiful heart and a story to tell, Bright blonde hair and that half-closed eye, That silly grin beneath the sky. Chantelle, you're my joy, you're my song, The place where I finally belong. [Outro] So here's to us, and all we'll do, Chantelle, my whole heart beats for you.
