I Felt It First

Verse 1

You were standin’ there, just passin’ through

Didn’t know I’d be lookin’ at you

But somethin’ in the way you smiled

Felt different than it had in a while

Knew your name, but not like that

Haven’t been the same since then

Like somethin’ in me came alive

Just from lookin’ in your eyes

Pre-Chorus

Didn’t make sense, couldn’t explain

But I knew it wouldn’t fade

Chorus

Yeah, I felt it first… before I knew

Before forever had a shape or truth

Just a spark I couldn’t ignore

Like I’d been right here before

I felt it first… didn’t know why

Just somethin’ in me came alive

What we were or what we’d be

I felt it first… before you felt me

Yeah… I felt it first

Before you felt me

---

Verse 2

Months went by and there we were

Lost in nothin’ but each other

Layin’ close, no words to say

Just breathin’ in that quiet space

Then your forehead touched mine slow

And I swear my whole world froze

Like that feelin’ came again

But deeper than it’s ever been

Pre-Chorus

And when you looked into my eyes

I saw it there this time

---

Chorus

Yeah, I felt it first… before I knew

Before forever had a shape or truth

But in that moment, so did you

When everything came into view

I felt it first… now I can see

It wasn’t just inside of me

What we were and what we are

Started there… but it’s gone far

---

Bridge

From that first look to that night

Everythin’ just felt so right

Like my heart had known your name

Long before you ever came

---

Final Chorus

I felt it first… and I still do

Every time I’m next to you

From that spark to what we are

I felt it first… and you felt it too
