Of course you were familiar with more of me than most people
I had no idea how much more I had to learn about you thenYou had most of the embarrassing parts down
Wrapped around your finger
But you seemed to notice how
different and how similar we were
before I did
You seemed to want to be included in the messy times
the hard moments
that I would let people run away fromI haven't felt this safe in love from this far away
But this is the program
not the free trial
The long plan
not the quick startThis is the perfect circumstance
This is the worst time
when anything goes
And so the best time to try anything
The best time to tell the uncomfortable truth
The best time to find the beautiful truth
