I’ll never forget that first kiss
I was lost, but I didn’t know it
I was terrified, but I couldn’t show it
But that kiss…
It was the best thing that happened to me

On the days when I was down
You did your best to understand
You would step in to hold my hand
When I needed love…
It could be found between you and me

Those days when I was at my best
You were there, and let me shine
You stood by, to let that time be mine
During these times…
I knew it just wasn’t about me

It was then that I realized
You knew me more than I knew myself
You loved me more than I loved myself
I knew then…
You saw the things in me that I couldn’t see

I want you to know…
You brought out the best in me
