Falling Slowly (But Always You)

I tried to laugh it off, play it cool

But every time you walked in the room

My heart forgot all the rules

You weren’t just anyone

You were the one I never saw coming

I kept my guard up, built the walls

Told myself I couldn’t fall

But you made the silence feel small

You weren’t just passing through

You were the one who broke right through

And we were falling slowly

But it always felt so true

I didn’t know what love was

‘Til I found it all in you

We were dancing on the edges

Of what we couldn’t say out loud

But somehow we always knew

It was always me and you

I made you laugh, you made me wait

We let the years decide our fate

But I’d do it all again

Just to feel your hand in mine

Even once, even one more time

You were the color in my gray

The reason I found words to say

What I’d buried deep away

But you read between my lines

You were always reading mine

And we were falling slowly

But it always felt so true

I didn’t know what love was

‘Til I found it all in you

We were dancing on the edges

Of what we couldn’t say out loud

But somehow we always knew

It was always me and you

All the moments in between

All the looks and what they mean

You were home before I knew

Before I could say “I love you”

Yeah, we were falling slowly

But my heart, it always knew

I didn’t need the timing

I just needed it to be you

Now we’re standing in the open

With nothing left to prove

And all I’ll ever need

Is always me and you

Always me and you...
