Let me tell you about the first few times I knew I could love you.

The first time I came over to your place and we sat on your couch and just held each other
And I fit just right in the nook of your chest and neck.

The first time we talked on the phone and it was so natural and it felt like I'd been talking to you all of my life
I felt like I could talk to you about anything and everything, and you'd still be there listening without a doubt.

The first time we made out on your bed,
you were all smiles and it was comfortable and you looked at me with such a gaze that I knew exactly what you were feeling
the reassurance was there in your eyes.

That first time
I was unsure of myself at first
I was a mess and my heart was thumping against my chest
I'd never felt anything like it before
But I wanted it as badly as you did
I wanted you entirely
and you calmed me down
you didn't say anything clichΓ©
like anyone else would've done to try and convince me
You simply told me if I felt the moment was as right as you did
then it was ok.

And all throughout you kept telling me you loved me
Even though I didn't need you to
It was when I knew;

That I could never feel for anybody else what I felt for you
I could start fires with what I felt for you in each of those moments.

That was when I knew,
everytime.
