The first time................

The first time I saw you
The first time I saw your eyes sparkle as you turned my way
The first time I heard your laugh bubble up
I knew
The first time you used my name
The first time you gave me a private look
The first time you made me laugh
I knew
The first time we began to tell our story
The first time we brushed together
The first time we winked and smiled
I knew

The first time I discovered you wonderful voice
The first time I saw your radiant smile
The first time I felt tongue tied as you sat by my side
I knew
The first time you discussed your art
The first time you showed vulnerability
The first time you called me friend
I knew
The first time we swam in the sea
The first time we giggled and laughed
The first time we lay on the beach to chat
I knew

The first time I noticed your wonderful hands
The first time I felt your light touch
The first time I saw your shoulder blades above your wrap
I knew
The first time you made my heart skip
The first time you talked of your life
The first time you enjoyed my food
I knew
The first time we shared a coconut at sunset
The first time we began to open up
The first time we knew we are in a stew!
We knew
