I was 23 You were only just 18 When you returned my call And I took you to the dance near the waterfalls A slower song came on I couldn't tell you what it was But I asked you to dance, and you let me take you by the hand
As I held you close the arms of the holy ghost Wrapped us in a feeling deep and true It hit me in the chest I felt it Wasn't the first time we had done this I couldn't shake the wave of deja vu
Because...
You are my closest friend The love we have will never end I never have to second guess anymore I've found what I've been looking for
(I've found what I've been looking for)
After the song when we sat down I couldn't even make a sound Holding back a wave that I could hardly bare You thought I didn't like you much but if I'd told you what I'd felt you probably would have turned your tail and promptly left me there
The truth is I was scared I had found you and I wanted not to lose you again
Oh, because…
You are my closest friend The love we have will never end I never have to second guess anymore I've found what I've been looking for
(I've found what I've been looking for) (I've found what I've been looking for)
Now it's been 23 Years since we both believed And gave our lives to one another Our love grew quickly for each other Truth is I'd never change a thing I believe one day we'll dress in white Forever we will sing…
You are my closest friend The love we have will never end I never have to second guess anymore I've found what I've been looking for
(I've found what I've been looking for) (I've found what I've been looking for)
