The Night We Finally Met

You were laughing at the bar

Spilling stories on your sleeve

I was halfway out the door

But your eyes said “don’t you leave”

Strangers leaning closer

Names we just confessed

Tiny spark between us

Growing in my chest

I keep going back

To the night we finally met

Every crowded room

Still fades out to that moment

Your hand brushed mine

And the world just lost its breath

I’ve been falling ever since

The night we finally met

You were drawing on a napkin

Little stars and crooked hearts

I was tracing every line

Like a map back to the start

Jukebox humming softly

Street air on your skin

You said

“this feels different”

I felt something shift within

I keep going back

To the night we finally met

Every crowded room

Still fades out to that moment

Your hand brushed mine

And the world just lost its breath

I’ve been falling ever since

The night we finally met

All the days that came before

Blur into a quiet hum

Nothing ever sounded right

’Til your voice cut through the buzz (oh)

If I only get one story

That I never will forget

It’s you turning toward me

On the night we finally met

I keep going back

To the night we finally met

Every crowded room

Still fades out to that moment

Your hand brushed mine

And the world just lost its breath

I’ve been falling ever since

The night we finally met
