  • [Verse 1: Alicia Keys]
    When I wake up in the morning babe
    Can't believe my eyes
    Say there's little part of destiny
    Oh yeah
    Cause you are now in my life
    There ain't no man or prize
    Oh noo
    Can't compare to you
    Ain't no words to describe the way that I'm feeling
    When I look at you

    [Chorus: Alicia Keys]
    I'm just speechless baby
    Don't know what to say
    I'm just speechless baby
    The poet in me has gone away
    I'm speechless baby
    Don't know what to say
    I'm just speechless baby
    The poet in me has gone away

    [Verse 2: Alicia Keys]
    True love finally finds you babe
    Life becomes a way
    Prettiest things imagine up, oh yea
    Listen I don't wanna say
    It only happens once if even at all
    Feel it deep in your soul
    And like a fairytale your story begins yeah
    What a sight to behold
    Makes you...

    [Chorus]

    [Verse 3: Eve]
    In the mornings when I rise up
    Go to the window and I smile with my eyes up
    Stare in the clouds like wow look at my luck
    Everyday I'm feeling better cause I know I got the best I can be proud of
    We can't fall quick
    Remember when I used to tell my girls like yo this dude think he so it
    Think he so fly
    And a'time you try to talk to me I'm like yo don't even dare try
    I was on my solo groove I don't want nothing I don't need nothing
    Man I'm good
    Now I'm speechless
    Cause I fell for him
    The poet in me died
    Cause I fell for him

    [Chorus]

    [Outro:]
    I used to know all the words to say
    I used to write all the poetry
    But now you take my breath away Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
