Sober

I asked if she believed
Are you able to conceive love
As in love in first sight?
She said well if you mean
In that old romantic fashion
Like lightning striking down?
Well not quite

But I have seen you and I told her
And you sure saw me I think I said that too
It's still how I feel now that I'm sober

And just as they say
You made super surroundings fade
I couldn't look away if I tried
See I'm one of those who try
Yet it's not that I'm shy
Just afraid that you'll see why I'm me

'Cause I've seen you now and it seems real
And you're seeing me and I can feel it
Do you know what I think now that I'm sober?

So what am I up to now?
I refuse to be a coward anymore
But how will I be handling this?
I see you circling me as a center somehow
And I'm not particularly used to
The real thing comin' around

But I have met you now and I'll tell them
And you've embraced me
Now I'm not the same
That's still how I feel and now I'm sober
Yes I have seen you and I've told her
And you're seeing me and I can feel it
And it's still the same now that I'm sober
