You Get Me
I was looking
But I wasn't looking for you.
Then you changed everything.
You became my compass and
I became your true north.
When your eyes turn soft
as soon as you see me
And the corners of your mouth
turn up just the tiniest bit
I know that
You get me.
I can catch your glance and know that
We are thinking exactly the same thing.
I know you get me because
When I am with you
I am more me
Than I am with anyone else.
When I fall into your eyes
I know everything I need to know
About how you are feeling and
What you are thinking and
All the things you just can't say.
I know this
Just as I know that
We had a before and
We'll have an after.
But if your life takes a U-turn now
You get me.
But I wasn't looking for you.
Then you changed everything.
You became my compass and
I became your true north.
When your eyes turn soft
as soon as you see me
And the corners of your mouth
turn up just the tiniest bit
I know that
You get me.
I can catch your glance and know that
We are thinking exactly the same thing.
I know you get me because
When I am with you
I am more me
Than I am with anyone else.
When I fall into your eyes
I know everything I need to know
About how you are feeling and
What you are thinking and
All the things you just can't say.
I know this
Just as I know that
We had a before and
We'll have an after.
But if your life takes a U-turn now
You get me.
