Story Behind The Song
This was written back in 1992, in Los Angeles, California. I was renting a room and a bathroom and had no outlets in my bedroom, so I put my keyboard on the bathroom counter and wrote this song. Looking back, I now realize how powerful it was that it was written and sung in the mirror. Because, after all, love is a powerful reflection. It became clear that this song was to be the album’s title track.

Lyrics
This morning when I opened my eyes, it was brand new world
And I can tell you why
You see I touched my soul, deeper than I thought it went
And now I can’t forget
You know your heart is heaven sent
And now I see, there’s so much more than I did before, I looked into your eyes
And now I see, there’s so much more, than I did before,
Before you touched my soul
Outside the birds sing a different melody, it’s much sweeter now
They sing in harmony
And even when the rain comes falling from the sky
What was misery, brings everything to life
And now I see, there’s so much more than I did before, I looked into your eyes
And now I see, there’s so much more than I did before,
Before you touched my soul
You know there’s fire in your heaven
And heaven feeds a fire
And the angels ride, the cool wind out to sea
And they carry me
Ooh you carry me
And now I see, there’s so much more than I did before,
I looked into your eyes
And now I see there’s so much more than I did before
Before you touched my soul (You touched my soul)
Before you touched my soul (You touched my soul)
Before you touched my soul, (You touched my soul)
Oh yeah
Before you touched my soul
