Lyrics
### [Intro]
I remember going to class and feeling the weight of depression all day /
Then you'd walk in and smile real big, and on the outside, all those things would fade away /
And every minute with you, it would start to seep through, and before long, the darkness was cleansed on the inside too /
### [Verse 1]
Years went by, and we lost touch, but I'd still think of your warm presence from time to time /
So when I finally got the chance to see you again, it wasn't much surprise I fell fast and then /
All the peace I remember getting for just a moment turned to something more permanent /
And yet you ask me why... So let me tell you /
### [Chorus]
When I see you, my eyes light up and yours do too /
My self-doubt dies, confidence exudes /
I feel good enough to laugh all day and night /
And safe enough to lower my guard and cry /
And if you need a few more reasons why... /
Every time we embrace, my heart starts to race /
When I make a mistake, you're quick to give grace /
I can speak my mind, and it's not for naught /
And you'll return it back with your honest thoughts /
So if you want to know why, this is just the start /
You give peace to my body, mind, and heart /
### [Verse 2]
We shared stories of our separate lives, the ups and downs, the lows and highs /
Through all the chaos, we both grew, and found ourselves anew /
But something about you stayed the same, that gentle strength, that calming flame /
And now being close to you feels like home, in a way I've never known /
And yet you ask me why…. So once again I’ll say
### [Chorus Repeat]
When I see you, my eyes light up and yours do too /
My self-doubt dies, confidence exudes /
I feel good enough to laugh all day and night /
And safe enough to lower my guard and cry /
And if you need a few more reasons why... /
Every time we embrace, my heart starts to race /
When I make a mistake, you're quick to give grace /
I can speak my mind, and it's not for naught /
And you'll return it back with your honest thoughts /
So if you want to know why, this is just the start /
You give peace to my body, mind, and heart /
