Song about the uncertainty in a new relationship, when one is ready for a commitment and the other is unsure.

When you know it's right

                                              Intro and chorus
 
                                         Do you know the feeling
                                        when you know it's right?
                                                   Oh yeah 

                                      Do you recognize the feeling
                                        when you know it's right?
                                             Oh yeah   Oh yeah

                                         Do you know the feeling
                                        when you know it's right?
                                            Oh yeah     Oh yeah


                                           When I first saw you, 
                                                in the distance
                                          I had to wipe my eyes

                                              I knew that you,
                                             could understand

                                           cause you recognized
                                            the tears that I cried
                                        
                                           But, you never really
                                                knew me at all

                                      but, I knew, that it was right

                                        I was ready to take the fall
                                     I just hurried and made the call, 

                                             and you came to me  
                                               in that same night

                                                It was September
                                           don't worry I remember

                                         How could my memory fail
                                             it was our first night
                                         our emotions , were so frail
         
                                          Oh I know that you worry
                                           so much about tomorrow

                                               you need not worry

                                             because I am all yours
                                         no more slamming of doors
                                     
                                        the future is just you and me
                                      
                                                       Chorus

                                           Do you know the feeling
                                           when you know it's right?
                                                      Oh yeah 

                                         Do you recognize the feeling
                                           when you know it's right?
                                                Oh yeah   Oh yeah

                                            Do you know the feeling
                                           when you know it's right?
                                               Oh yeah     Oh yeah
