Saw a show with some friends
I was told that she might be there
I’d seen pictures, heard stories
Could she really walk on the air
She was there in the crowd,
saw her turn and smile at someone.
A friend asked me, “Is that her?”
But they could see I was already gone
Chorus:
I was in the middle before I knew I’d begun
Not some far off horizon, but there at the heart of the sun.
We are in the middle so I guess we’ve begun
Holding hands… In the heart of the Sun
She caught a train from the airport,
Read a book as she sat by my door.
“What’s the plan?” She asked
“Let’s find out what’s in store.”
We shared appetizers
The entrees were way out of reach.
We’d find dessert later
If we dared eat this peach.
CHORUS
We chased lightning
caught thunder in the rain.
You could say that she saved me
I never will be the same.
I’m surrounded by her
Her questions everywhere
And it’s true that I know
I need her like the air.
CHORUS
