So What's Your Song?

So every couple has to have a song that they have deemed "our song", right? Answer: yes. It just seems to happen. It really has nothing to do with how affectionate they are, how sweet they are, or how much they like music. The "our song" really doesn't even have to be in a style that both parties usually enjoy. Why? Because it's all about the lyric content of the song. Abbi and I really have a few songs like that (because of memories, etc.), but there is really one that would stand out as "our song": "When Did You Fall" by Chris Rice. It is a simple song in a jazz-pop style with, at times, quite witty lyrics. As we have discovered, it's actually a great driving song. You  know... drivin' along, maybe going out on a date, maybe just driving around... all of  sudden, BAM! ...song...

...smiles...

It's really a wonderful thing to have a song by which two people can relate and reminisce. Especially dealing with love and romance. So here's the plan: I'll post the lyrics to "our song" and you all can post the names and lyrics of YOUR "our songs" ;) Just comment back with it!

God bless you guys!

"When Did You Fall" - Chris Rice

You’re all smiles and silly conversation

As if this sunny day came just for you

You twist your hair, you smile, and you turn your eyes away

C’mon, tell me what’s right with you

Now it dawns on me probably everybody’s talkin’

And there’s something here I’m supposed to realize

‘Cause your secret’s out, and the universe laughs at its joke on me

I just caught it in your eyes, it’s a beautiful surprise

When did you fall in love with me?

Was it out of the blue

‘Cause I swear I never knew it

When did you let your heart run free?

Have you been waiting long?

When did you fall in love with me?

When did you fall in love?

Make your way over here, sit down by this fool, and let’s rewind

C’mon, let’s go back and replay all our scenes

You can point out the hints, the clues, the twists and the smiles this time

All the ones that slipped by me

I bet my face is red, and you can hear my heart poundin’

Well I guess it don’t matter now that I realize

‘Cause baby I missed it then, but I can surely see you now

Right here before my eyes

You’re my beautiful surprise

When did you fall in love with me?

Was it out of the blue

‘Cause I swear I never knew it

When did you let your heart run free?

Have you been waiting long?

When did you fall in love with me?

When did you fall in love?

Was it at the coffee shop

Or that morning at the bus stop

When you almost slipped, and I caught your hand

Or the time we built the snowman

The day at the beach, sandy and warm

Or the night with the scary thunderstorm

I never saw the signs

Now we’ve got to make up for lost time

And I can tell now by the way that you’re looking at me

I’d better finish this song so my lips will be free

Have you been waiting long, when did you fall in love

I kept you waiting so long, when did you fall

Have you been waiting long

When did you fall in love with me

When did you fall in love?
