This Love
-
You walked back into my life
Forgave all my mistakes
Knew we'd be together again
Your love you wouldn't forsake.I was confused with it all,
Not knowing how to feel.
We'd been in love once before
Could somehow this be real.[Chorus]
I was so scared
Yet it seemed cliche to say I'd never love again
But I never thought this soon, this much, this love.Always having to be strong
I'd forgotten how it was
To feel like a little child
In your protective arms.You make my life complete
And all my dreams come true
I shake my head in wonder
My love is it really you? -
The year was 1994.
We were high school sweethearts who found their way back to each other. I believed so deep in my heart that it was meant to be.
I’d enjoyed writing poetry when I was younger, and was now inspired to write a love song. These lyrics truly reflect the adoration and admiration I felt at the time.
It’s been a beautiful thing reworking this song, looking back with a sweet nostalgia that up until recently was hidden under the layers of how the love story ended.
