lyrics

We haven’t yet properly met.
Or maybe we already did.
Perhaps I have known you for all of my life.
And you knew me when I was a kid.
Well, I’m sorry if that were the case.
I had lots of growing to do.
And there’s no guarantee there’s not more still to come.
But it’s worth it if it brought me to you.

So forgive me if I start to shake
There is so much I still haven’t said
I’m always one step behind but I’m one jump ahead

This life has no sure guarantees
With its twists and it turns down the road
But I’m a team player and once were a team
I’ll be with you to lighten the load

I don’t know yet the things you have gone through
As for me I have gone through it all
And I think we deserve something good in our lives
Where we’ll never let each other fall

I’ll admit I’m not always too smart
I can get pretty sick in the head
I maybe two steps behind but I’m one jump ahead

I wish that I had more to offer
Even still, I can promise you this
You will have and long life and you won’t go unloved
And your mornings will start with a kiss.
You’ll have married a hopeless romantic
Who loves his city, his family, and home
And you don’t have to go through this life
Thinking you have to go through it all on your own

I still don’t know if you exist
Or if it’s a hopeless romance
But I don’t want to go through the rest of my life
Without having taken that chance
I never been much good at patience
But in life if you wanting to thrive
You have to go through it, the good and the bad
That’s just part of being alive

I can’t wait till the day that we meet
And you’re not just a hope in my head
I may be one step behind
I may be ten steps behind
But for you I’ll take a hundred and nine
Jumps ahead
