I still remember that first night When we were friends In your car, after work. I was going home to cry myself to sleep And you asked me to listen to music for a minute An hour later, I was heading home, And fell asleep smiling. Those late nights at Denny's Laughing. And that time you gave that cute waitress your number. We were friends then, But my heart stung. That night in your old apartment, Making cookies and watching TV When we realized maybe there was more Than a friendship. In the back dining room at work, When you took my hand and kissed it before the Christmas party. The first night I stayed over, And we held each other talking until Sunrise. Two weeks in, After we made love for the first time, To that Ed Sheeran song. And you looked me in the eye and said You weren't sure. That text you sent me two days later, Saying you never wanted To leave my side again. That night at the concert In Milwaukee with your best friend, Holding my hand and screaming the words. When you drove half an hour through the snow, At 2 a.m. Just to tell me you loved me for the first time. When I was standing on the Edge of that cliff, Thanking you for the past four months. And the text you sent back that Made me stop the evil thoughts. When I slipped into the darkest Pits of Hell, And every time, You'd intertwine my fingers with yours, Pull me up, And stroke my face, Telling me I was stronger than that, And repeatedly saying I could do it. The first time I saw you On stage, And every time after that. That night I packed my bags And said that was it. And you said you didn't need me anyways, Then admitted you lied. And said again, You'd be lost without me. Our last fight, In the car, When you pulled over and told me to Get out. I didnt, And we apologized, and cried, And both admitted our recent faults. When you sat at the table with My father, For the first time. And when he shook your hand, Looked you in the eye, And apologized, Thanking you for helping his baby girl. And you shook his hand back, Nodding and smiling. When we were driving home, And we talked about what song We would dance to, If the day would ever come. Every song, Every lazy morning in bed, Every kiss, Every laugh, Every dumb joke. Every moment, That's when I knew. I knew you were the one. The One.
