Blue Butterfly

A Love Within

I knew what love was when...
our eyes met and you first spoke my name.

I knew what love was when...
we first held hands.

I knew what love was when...
we first kissed and held each other.

I knew what love was when...
we each committed to the other.

I knew what love was when...
we argued and then made up.

I knew what love was when...
you asked me to set you free.
And when you returned into my life.

Over the years,
I came to know you and you me.
