Ever Since I…

Ever since that first day
My world seems right-side up
Even when I lose track of time and place
Whether old or young
Weathered years, come and gone
Whenever I look into your face
Whenever I gaze into your eyes
Ever since I…

I long to make you smile
I love to make you laugh
I live for those little moments
that seem to last forever
Even if they’re for a little while
Like a first time
Like a last time
Ever since I…

It’s been whirlwind of emotions
Like a tornado
of stirring and stimulating commotion
But I love all of it
I wouldn’t have any other way
It’s made us who we are
It’s what brought us together
Ever since that summer night
Ever since I…

Don’t listen to this old fool
Who still reels over passion and lust
Like a poor poet pouring paint
trying to capture a picture
That describes the sensation
that still makes him feel young
If you remember that night
Ever since that first time
Ever since I…
fell for you
