Mark

We were only ten years old when this all began

Didn't know back then you'd be my forever man

I'd ride my blue ten-speed bike right down your street

Just hoping that our eyes would catch and meet

I was looking for a reason just to ride on by

Pedaling so fast, hoping I could catch your eye

It’s been twenty-one years since I looked in your face

But my heart never left this familiar place

You're so handsome, a gentleman, my shelter from the storm

This time we'll make it work, keep each other warm

Just like you told me when the wandering was through

I'm back home safe in your arms, Mark, with you

We had our on-again, off-again, trying to find our way

Sometimes the timing just wouldn't let us stay

Two decades of distance, living separate lives

But the spark that we had, it somehow survives

Now the space between us has finally disappeared

Every road I ever took was leading me right here

It’s been twenty-one years since I looked in your face

But my heart never left this familiar place

You're so handsome, a gentleman, my shelter from the storm

This time we'll make it work, keep each other warm

Just like you told me when the wandering was through

I'm back home safe in your arms, Mark, with you

I never felt this kind of peace, I never felt so secure

With the way that you hold me, my spirit is sure

You're a true gentleman, you chase away the dark

I feel so protected when I'm with you, Mark

Yeah, we finally got the rhythm right

Stepping out of the past and into the light

It’s been twenty-one years since I looked in your face

But my heart never left this familiar place

You're so handsome, a gentleman, my shelter from the storm

This time we'll make it work, keep each other warm

Just like you told me when the wandering was through

I'm back home safe in your arms

Yeah, I'm back home safe in your arms, Mark, with you
