Brittany Chastain - From The Start

From the first time we met,
I knew you'd be mine.

I realized I loved you,
after a very short time.

Afraid to let you know,
afraid you wouldn't stay.

But I couldn't stop it,
you took my breath away.

As time went on,
my feelings only grew.

And somewhere along the way,
you began to love me too.

Now you have a place,
so deep inside my heat.

I knew you'd be mine,
I knew it from the start.
