I Recognized You When We Met


Won't let dust settle on my feet

I'm not a paperweight

I couldn't dream half this sweet

And I'm not one to wait

I've been chasing a notion

For far too long

Won't let reason rule emotion

Even if it's wrong

All along I was looking for this

The love I didn't know yet

I'd never before caught a glimpse

But I recognized you when we met
