He had me in the way he brushed
     his bangs from his view
And the way he made me see the world
     wholly anew.

He had me in the way he looked down
     at me and smiled shyly
So the world just melted away and my heart
     skipped away, flying.

He had me in the way his sense of humor
     was biting, sarcastic, and dark
Matching my own as we discovered
     our combined gift for snark.

He had me in the way his fingers moved
     gently over the guitar strings
And the way his voice deepened when
     he said certain special things.

He had me in the way he showed care
     in even the simplest gestures
Always going above and beyond with
     each step, every measure.

He had me in the way his laugh
     made my soul seem to dance
And how he could bring my world to a halt
     with even the quickest glance.

He had me,
     He had me,
          He had me at hello.
