This is a very special song that I wrote to mark the 20th anniversary of the day I met the woman who would become my wife. It's a long story. It's a short song. It probably should be longer. Someday I'm going to write a book about it, or at least a short story. But it's a long story, so I don't know. This is an "And I Love Her" type song. I read that Paul McCartney and John Lennon used to get together and say "Let's write one like that song we like," so that's what I did. I wrote one with the same structure as "And I Love Her," which by the way is the song I sang at our wedding, in both English and Spanish. “I Fell In Love With You”… “And I Love Her” they're like cousins. Terry Miggins did a really great nylon string guitar solo on this and Jay Miggins found just the right rhythm on the drums, the whole song is very Beatlesque, as it should be because that was what I set out to do when I started writing it. This is a very special song for me and I’m really happy with the way it turned out.

I Fell In Love With You
(Bill Naughton, Jr.)
c 2014 Biliolga Music (ASCAP)
The day that I met you, my life was changed,
When your eyes found mine I knew, I would never be the same,
I fell in love with you…
The angels heard my prayer, my dream came true,
When I saw you standing there, there was nothing I could do,
I fell in love with you…
-bridge-
It was the last thing I expected, when you walked into the room,
But my heart was unprotected, and I fell in love with you…
The sun lights up the day, stars shine at night,
Simple words could never say, everything I felt inside,
When I fell in love with you…
-guitar solo -
-repeat bridge-
The sun lights up the day, stars shine at night,
Simple words could never say, everything I felt inside,
When I fell in love with you...
When I fell in love with you…
