To the Man In Baywatch Gear

To the man i met in spain 
By the pool in baywatch gear
I could never have imagined
Wed create a life so dear...

I would catch you gazing over
But i was blindly unaware
Of the connection between us
That was clearly there.

The holiday was short
We only shared a little while 
But in those short moments 
You always made me smile.

You made me feel so safe 
But i was blind to see
That you the man in baywatch gear
Was infact the man for me.

The holiday was over 
We went our seperate ways 
But i had no idea wed speak
to each other from that moment,
every single day.

Our connection grew stronger
But in miles we were far apart
We began to lose touch 
The distance got too much 

Shortly down the line
I moved back home
Our lifes were so different then
But unbeknown to us 
That connection had never gone 

We had no idea 
Our hearts would reconnect 
When i stumbled across you 
Living opposite my doorstep 

We began chatting yet again 
You asked me on a breakfast date 
I cant describe that moment other
than true fate.

We were meant to be together 
Now its so clear to see 
As i could never imagine me without you 
Or you without me.
