John

Back in the hallways, when we were just kids

I never forgot how your energy felt

Life kept us moving, doing what it did

But time couldn't break the hand we were dealt

Twenty long years on a separate road

But we finally made it, we're sharing the load

We're getting the chance to make it all stay

Permanent love, we're not walking away

John, you mean the whole world to me

You're the only one who calms my anxiety

With those gorgeous eyes and that beautiful smile

I've been waiting for this for a long, long while

Your presence alone brings me total peace

All of my worries and shadows release

After all of this time, I'm no longer alone

Next to you, I am finally home

You don't need a word to know how I feel

You just look at my face and know something is wrong

Your protective touch is so steady and real

Caring and loving, it's where I belong

When the world gets too loud and the pressure gets deep

You're the quiet I crave, you're the promise I keep

Just having you near is enough for my heart

Tearing the walls of my worries apart

John, you mean the whole world to me

You're the only one who calms my anxiety

With those gorgeous eyes and that beautiful smile

I've been waiting for this for a long, long while

Your presence alone brings me total peace

All of my worries and shadows release

After all of this time, I'm no longer alone

Next to you, I am finally home

From a high school dream to a permanent place

Every detour we took led me right to your face

You're my shelter, my rock, my soft place to land

Twenty years later, I'm holding your hand

John, you mean the whole world to me

You're the only one who calms my anxiety

With those gorgeous eyes and that beautiful smile

I've been waiting for this for a long, long while

Your presence alone brings me total peace

All of my worries and shadows release

After all of this time, I'm no longer alone

Next to you, I am finally home
