lyrics

I’d barely known you for the longest time
and it wouldn’t be honest to say you never crossed my mind
but lately now it seems I’m inclined
to tell everyone I finally find in you the perfect kind
and right there all the time

and now it’s suddenly clear
that we find ourselves here
I’d been racing through so many years
I love the way that you drive
so can we go for a ride?
now it finally begins
got you under my skin
I’m glad it’s not too late
yeah this was worth the wait

I’ve been trying hard to give the impression
of someone who never suffers depression
like I’m alright
but now I’m gonna make a confession
the other troubles I had aren’t worth a mention
they’re not worth the time
you put them out my mind

but it doesn’t feel strange
now that everything’s changed
how easily we’re rearranged
so can I see you tonight?
would that be alright?
now I can’t help but smile
you’re eclectic and wild
I know this is the best
my lovely lioness

is there a place that we can go to be together
that you’ve never been? I feel like I’ve been nowhere ever
any time is when I want the chance to hold you
so pull me in close there’s nothing more I’d ever need

and now it’s suddenly clear
that we find ourselves here
I’d been wasting through so many years
so glad we got this chance
so can I have this dance?
there’s so much to convey
though I can’t find a way
to say what’s on my mind
but you’re the perfect kind
