Touch Down

You want to know how you've changed me,
You want to understand.
You want me to explain to you,
How I feel walking hand in hand.

To put it into words,
Is not an easy thing to do.
The impact that it's had;
You loving me, me loving you.

Where to begin? it's hard to say,
But let's go from the start.
That first night, how you looked at me,
How it skipped a beat of my heart.

I Hated that look, it scared me,
Because it made it all so real.
For the first time in so long,
I was made to truly feel.

I tried to deny this fact,
I kept closed up and cold,
The only things I said to you,
Were harsh, sharp and bold.

I left that night and didn't look back,
I wanted to get away.
Away from the very thought of it,
Of falling for someone again.

The next week was a little crazy,
I guess I tried to compensate.
Tried to make myself forget you,
I found myself in quite a state.

But this is when I realised,
That I was being insane.
That maybe if I called you,
We could start all over again.

From then it moved quite quickly,
But I was still denying at first,
That it was anything remotely serious,
That I wasn't completely immersed.

But since I've acknowledged it,
Since I've known it's true,
Since that night I came back home,
And whispered: "I love you"...

You've truly opened my eyes,
I see things in a different light,
I have no doubts or worries,
And I know for sure that this is right.

You see me for who I truly am,
No need for fakes or jest,
You make me feel so comfortable,
Yet still push me to do my best.

You see the person I am now,
You see the person I can be,
You see all of this potential,
And you truly believe in me.

I've never had something like this,
That I would give my all,
For the first time, I see a future,
And the present seems so small.

I've never had someone pick me up,
They've always pulled me down.
But as long as you're mine and you're looking at me,
My feet will never again touch down to the ground.
