How the tables turn
As I lay in silence, my heart beat I hearPeacefully calling your name, wishing you near
I don't think one could understand, just how I feel
How I yearn and hunger for your love, but it's real
Funny as a boy, I would laugh at the word
Giggling at the older men, and the stories I've heard
They would say "when I find it, my nights would be bright,
And that I should fight for it, with all of my might"
I would always think to myself, "yea right"
Then I met you, my heart dropped on sight
It was at that moment, it all came back to me
Every word they said, and I now began to see
This was a feeling inside, I wish to explain
No matter how hard I try, it evades my brain
And I smile, because that's all I can do
And I can't help but wonder, if you feel this way too
I mean.. When my eyes close, it's you I see
Even in mirrors, your image stares back at me
See for me. this feeling is beyond amazing
But I know to you, it may just sound crazy
Funny how back then, the questions I use to ask
At the stories, I was the one to sit and laugh
Now as a man, I feel loves true glory
Tables have turned, now I tell my story
