Love like that
By Nathan Gogin
[Intro]
I never knew love like that,
You flew into my life like an acrobat,
Head over heels I fell into your arms,
I was a complete sucker for your charms,
I asked you out on a date,
That's the night I came crashing through your garden gate,
[Verse 1]
We drove into the night sky,
I was still feeling a little bit shy,
To the movies I drove with you by my side,
Your love was coming down on me like a landslide,
We laughed off the clumsiness, forgot all the fear,
As the neon lights flickered and the static grew clear,
You reached for my hand right there in the dark,
And a clumsy beginning turned into a spark.
[Chorus]
Oh, you caught me when I was falling fast,
Built something real that was meant to last,
From a broken gate to a midnight drive,
With you by my side, I’m so alive.
Yeah, you’re my safety net, my saving grace,
My favorite person in my favorite place.
[Verse 2]
The seasons rolled on and the movie screens faded,
But the feeling we started has never grown jaded.
Now we sit on the porch where it all first began,
Tracing the lines on the palm of your hand.
No more crashing through fences or hiding the nerves,
Just riding the rhythm of life and its curves.
[Chorus]
Oh, you caught me when I was falling fast,
Built something real that was meant to last,
From a broken gate to a midnight drive,
With you by my side, I’m so alive.
Yeah, you’re my safety net, my saving grace,
My favorite person in my favorite place.
[Verse 3]
I still look at you and see that acrobat,
The one who changed everything just like that.
We’ve got our own timing, our own little style,
And you still make me helpless with just a small smile.
The bruises have healed from that first clumsy night,
But the impact you made keeps on burning so bright.
[Bridge]
They say love is a risk, a leap in the dark,
A blind hesitation, a shot in the park.
But I’d crash through a thousand more gates just to see,
The way that you look when you're looking at me.
[Chorus]
Oh, you caught me when I was falling fast,
Built something real that was meant to last,
From a broken gate to a midnight drive,
With you by my side, I’m so alive.
Yeah, you’re my safety net, my saving grace,
My favorite person in my favorite place.
[Outro]
Yeah, my favorite place.
No more crashing down,
We’re safe and sound.
Just you and me, under the night sky.
Never knew love like that.
