The Story So Far (From This Moment On)

I can't remember the time or place

             But it seems so long ago.

Or what you were wearing

             You always looked the same to me.
                         
It's unclear about how we met

             I wondered about you from the beginning.

All I know is it was the best conversation that I've ever had

             You intrigued me, evoked passion in me.

To this day I've never found someone

             The way you've been treating me makes my heart melt.

With eyes as wide as yours

             They tell me you're lying, your eyes tell me differently.

I've been searching up and down this coast

             I thought I would never find anybody.

Overlooking what I need the most

             All I feel now - I owe to you.




Did you notice I was afraid?

             I thought you'd hurt me... or worse - I'd hurt you.

I thought I'd run out of things to say

             And then I figured you'd just throw me away.


And everything else is irrelevant

             Because from this moment on, I feel so alive.

To the story so far

             And I can't believe that my life could be so complete.




The sky will never look the same again

             Since you've shown me how my life can turn around.

    I don't think I've ever seen a poem mixed into a song... might have to try that someday. I really like the way this one flows and evokes a lot of feeling. It feels real to me.
