I found the truth in your eyes
It was in the way you talked to me
This is all I really needed
Your fingertips explained the longing
You gather me in your arms and never apologize
This was all I ever needed

Just like I always knew I would
Within soft layers, they helped me realize
You wouldn't choose another woman if you could
You really do want me
You truly do love me
There was a difference, I could tell
A gentleness held up for me to see
The reasons, the desires, why you once again fell
You really do desire me
You actually only see me
No big display to make me realize
Just you, simply you
And your softened brown eyes
A year and a half without our love
I saw the linger upon our ring
The silent thank you sent to up above
You really do choose me
You truly believe it is me
I am the one
I feel safe and secure here in your embrace
But it's when you turn my chin up and look in my eyes
The truth is all there, gingerly etched upon your face
You really do need me
You truly do cherish me
From now till eternity
No words, no tone of voice could have made me realize
It could have only been you, sweet sweet you
And your softened brown eyes.
