"Our Moment Of Truth" by David Gray

Our Moment of Truth

is my mind playing tricks on me 

or did i just see a flicker of love in your eyes

is my imagination getting away from me 

or did i just see a flicker of love in your eyes

when our eyes met i felt a mutual understanding

somehow we both knew it was our moment of truth

when our fantasies collided with reality 

a shared epiphany if you will

a moment when we both knew 

that we were meant to be together 

even if it didn't make sense

even if it wasn't part of the plan 

we thought we'd found love at least 

once or twice before but then 

our paths crossed and everything changed 
 
because it didn't compare to 

anything we'd ever known before 

our moment of truth

our moment of truth

our moment of truth 

when we could no longer deny 

to ourselves what we 
   
already knew in our hearts  

that we had finally found 

our one true love  

a reawakening of memories

of someone we had conjured up 

a long, long time ago 

somehow, we both forgot 

what we really wanted in a partner 

due to practicalities

so we buried our burning passion 

until it broke free on it's own

something had to give

something had to give

something had to give

and it finally did 

despite our best efforts 

to keep our feelings 

under lock and key

so sweetheart

where do we go from here

now that we know 

what we know is in our hearts

our moment of truth

our moment of truth

come take my hand 

and walk with me 

to a new destination

to a place 

where nothing is certain

and the future is unknown
