Ian: When do you know?

When do you know for certain?

The first look?

Catching her eyes across a crowded room?

The shy smile?

The furtive glance?

Or later?

When the roots have grown down

Extended deep into the earth

Far beyond the giddy joys of the earliest days

Can you trust what you feel?

When do you know?

When do you know?

When do you know?

When do you know?

Not the first moment, not then

Not in the early, heady joys

No, most defiantly not then

And not as life continues

As you almost forget everything there was

And it turns into something different

It can't be then

It can't be then that you know

Sometimes you see

You've known all along

You just don't realise that you do

You have to know that you know

You have to find that out

And you know when it's gone

When you see it torn from your hands

When it's never coming back

That's when you know

The moment you risk losing it forever, you know

And sometimes you have to take a chance

Sometimes you act without thinking

Sometimes you make the reckless move to save everything you hold dear

Sometimes you take a leap of faith
