My Place Is With You
I wish I could say
that I always knew you'd come along,
but I didn't.
I used to worry a lot.
The world was brimming over with people,
but they all had other
things to do
and other people to be with.
Back then I tried anxiously
to fit in with people
who weren't right for me at all,
anymore than I was right for them.
Of course, it never worked...
Then one day
You were quietly there in my life,
and gradually I realized
what something in me
had known all along.
There really is a time
and a place for everything.
We met when it was time
for us to find each other,
and the place I've always needed
is with you.
