lyrics
When I ran into you
back in the twilight of my youth
It was something I wasn't used to
Because you are never like the modern girls
You said that we could wait
And maybe we'd be great
Because great ones take a number of years
And when I met you
I never had any fear
Your love was only something I'd read about
Your love is poetry
Your love's all over me
Your love has soul
Your love is kindness
Your love is innocent
Your love is competent
And there is so much love
For me, you've offered
And there is beauty in the things you do
The things you say
And beneath the surface of your face
And if I could just be a stronger man
There is a reason to be now
A better man right now
And all this life I've known
All this life I've felt
I've got to learn to love
Like the best that came before
And in this life I know
In this life I feel
back in the twilight of my youth
It was something I wasn't used to
Because you are never like the modern girls
You said that we could wait
And maybe we'd be great
Because great ones take a number of years
And when I met you
I never had any fear
Your love was only something I'd read about
Your love is poetry
Your love's all over me
Your love has soul
Your love is kindness
Your love is innocent
Your love is competent
And there is so much love
For me, you've offered
And there is beauty in the things you do
The things you say
And beneath the surface of your face
And if I could just be a stronger man
There is a reason to be now
A better man right now
And all this life I've known
All this life I've felt
I've got to learn to love
Like the best that came before
And in this life I know
In this life I feel
