Lyrics

All Along
words and music by Richard A. Cosey

On that first day you met me, I wasnÂ?t at my best
A little down, broken, some might say
You didnÂ?t hold it against me
You didnÂ?t shut me down, or turn me away

We had hours of conversation by the fountain,
Cooled by the water, warmed by the sun.
Our connection seemed to sparkle, and glisten on its own
Then harden like stone.

Chorus:

IÂ?ve been running all my life just to get where I belong
Standing still, with both feet in the air
Running through my life
DidnÂ?t make me wrong
Cause IÂ?ve been running, straight to you
All Along

It was the nineteenth of October, some forgotten year
Under grey skies, we said our wedding vows
Then the clouds seem to open
The sun came running down, all around

Chorus

Bridge:

All along weÂ?ve been together in some universal way
All along weÂ?ve known each other as one person
So much the same

Now the boys are in the bathtub, splashing memories around
ThereÂ?s a tear of joy in the well of mamaÂ?s eye
IÂ?d like to hang this moment, on the highest star above
Then name it, with loveÂ?

Chorus

End
