I remember that feeling now
The part where things set in just right.
The warmth of your body
Pressed tightly to mine.
For a long time, some years now
I've been searching for that illusive belonging.
Eroding the sense of hopelessness
And bringing me back to life.
It's the silly stupid things really
That endear to me most.
The way you smile, and how your eyes sparkle
Even the way you laugh.
There's something about it all I can't quite place
I'm sleeping so well these past few days
I don't regret waking up when I head out, and
I don't sigh before drifting off early in the morning.
Is this what happiness is like?
It's not like this has even gone far at all
Just one date actually.
Some would say I'm overreacting.
I think it's just the sign of hope really
That inspires me to brighter moods
My temperament continues to improve
Each and every day I get to know you.
