I called up my girl at work and sung it to her over the phone... she was smiling so big I could hear it in her voice!
VERSE:
It was a long drive- to your place up in New York,
I remember being scared- I wasn't sure what I'd expected,
But when I saw you- I knew my heart had led me there,
You are the answer- to my each and every prayer,
CHORUS:
If you're quiet- like when you're tired,
You can hear my singing to you softly,
I'd like to be everything you'll ever need,
If I could show you- all I want is just to know you…
Better,
VERSE:
All this time I'd had you waiting- I could have,
Written you a song or a poem or something- I could have,
Had you to myself- but I was foolish not to see,
When you were at the library- you were always there for me,
CHORUS:
If you're quiet- like when you're tired,
You can hear me telling you I love you,
I'd like to be everything you'll ever need,
I should have told you- all I want is just to hold you…
Closer,
BRIDGE:
In the backseat of your car,
Forgetting all but who we are,
I was closer at that moment then I'd ever been,
Cassandra- you truly are my closest friend,
VERSE:
It was a long drive- to your place up in New York,
I was excited just to be- on my way to see you,
The trip was worth it- I've never had so much fun,
But it wasn't the last- there’s so much more to come,
OUTRO [Same as chorus, but slower]:
If you're quiet- like when you're tired,
You can feel me- kissing your lips, gently,
And you can be everything I'll ever need,
Now that I have you- I will make it plain to see…
I love you.
