You made it so easy

To laugh, to smile, to talk

I hadn’t had that in so long

I forgot what it feels like

To feel brave enough to welcome your conversation

To have hope

Why couldn’t have I known

That you were out there

all along, waiting

Maybe a year ago, I wouldn’t have let you walk me to the door

I wouldn’t have let you into my head

I wouldn’t have gotten to know you – but this is me trying

So, I’ll watch for your car down the drive way

I’ll ask you about your day

I’ll walk you to your yard

And I’ll hope that you’ll still walk over when you get off of work.
