This, right here, is one of my favorite OPM songs of all time. If I were to get married, I’d definitely sing this to the man I’m marrying on our wedding day. In fact, I promised a friend of mine I’ll sing this on his wedding. “When I Met You” is such a beautiful, wonderfully written song. I like the original version by Apo Hiking Society, but I especially love Sarah Geronimo’s version, which is a slower, more romantic version of the song.

Even though I haven’t found the man I’m going to marry yet, this song fills my heart with a warm glow that makes me long for that day when I’m finally going to sing it to the man I’m going to spend the rest of my life with…

There I was, an empty piece of a shell
Just minding my own world
Without even knowing what love and life were all about
Then you came, you brought me out of my shell
You gave the world to me, and before I knew
There I was so in love with you

You gave me a reason for my being
And I love what I’m feeling
You gave me a meaning to my life
Yes, I’ve gone beyond existing
And it all began when I met you

I love the touch of your hair
And when I look in your eyes
I just know, I know, I’m on to something good
And I’m sure, my love for you will endure
Your love light up my world and take all my cares
Away where they can’t bother me

You taught me how to love
You showed me how tomorrow and today
My love, is different from the yesterday
I knew, you taught me to love
And darling I will always cherish you
Today, tomorrow and forever…

And I’m sure, when the evening will come around
I know we’ll be making love like never before
My love, who could ask for more?
