[ I caught it with my heart ]

It started out so mellow
so serene, and familiar
you told me how you felt about me
threw it in the air
and I caught it with my heart

maybe we won’t last forever
maybe there won’t be
cake, vows, and rings
but all I know is for now
it’s nervousness that you bring
not uneasy, uncertain nervous
but that “just-right” feeling
the thing that tells me its okay to do what we do

and when we kiss
I stand there trying to grasp onto the moment
trying to figure out how I feel

and I realize is that this is what’s meant to be
my lips part and I take you in
and it’s beautiful

maybe we won’t last forever
forever is a scary word
but maybe we’ll last
and bring each other a state of mind
never felt before
a feeling that is shadowed day-by-day
that hides behind corners
and jumps out and catches us

and just maybe one day
we can say we love each other
maybe not that forever type of love
the kind that surpasses all others<
but maybe just a love that can last for awhile
and bring out the best in both of us
and for a moment
I will be able to look you in the eye
and know that you are mine
for that moment in time
