Story behind the song
This is pretty much how it happened with my first boyfriend. Maybe a little hyperbole, but the action's pretty much the same.
Lyrics
When I met you, you were with her And you'd been with her for two long years I was scared, didn't wanna go there 'Cause things like that can only end in tears When I met you, there was something That little spark that made me feel alive But I said no, 'cause I knew where this would go And I was not gonna be the one To make you make her cry --And baby, baby, I tried to fight what I felt But I just can't get you off of my mind Baby, baby I tried to just forget that we met But I just can't leave you behind And baby, baby, I tried. Baby, baby I tried. When I met you, I was thinking We could never be more than just friends All I knew was I was happy with you And I did not want the night to end When I met you, I didn't notice That you hugged me probably more than you should But now I see, you felt the same way about me And if it wasn't for her You'd have done everything that you could Chorus And I heard two weeks later she dumped you flat Our good friend said I should call you Two days after that And nervous as I was I couldn't not pick up the phone 'Cause baby, standing in your arms is the only place I ever felt at home The only place I ever felt at home Chorus
