Just To Show

I close my eyes
And I smile, knowing that everything is alright
To the core, so close that door
Is this happening?

My breath is on your hair
I'm unaware that you open the blinds and let the city in
And God, you held my hand, and we stand
Just taking in everything

And I knew it from the start
S
o my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we're trying to so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are on this 18th floor balcony
We're both flying away

So we talk about moms and dads
About family pasts
Just getting to know where we came from
Our hearts were on display for all to see
I cant believe this is happening to me

And I raise my hand as if to show you that I was yours
That I was so yours for the taking
I'm so yours for the taking
And that's when I felt the wind pick up
I grabbed the rail while choking up
These words to say and then you kissed me

I knew it from the start
My arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach and
We're tyring so hard not to fall asleep
So here we are
On this 18th floor balcony
We're both flying away

And I'll try to sleep
To keep you in my dreams
Till I can bring you home with me
I'll try to sleep
And when I do, I'll keep you in my dreams

I knew it from the start...
