Story Behind The Song

I'd been looking for the inspiration to write a straight up love song for my wife about our relationship for some time. This one finally poured out. Once in the studio, the arrangement stayed true to the original demo other than the intro. The overall feel of the song was captured perfectly by my producer. I wouldn't change a thing.

Song Description

I feel that lyrically this song comes broadly from the realm of Lionel Richie and similar artists. Musically, it takes on a few forms. Country, Pop, R&B. I think the tune could be covered in multiple genres, and also work well as a duet.

Lyrics

You stopped the rain in my mind
I'd hoped for some kind of sign
In walked the dream I had dreamed
That moment this heart reset

Did not take long I confess
Safely inside your caress
'Til everything seemed to rhyme

I finally found you
After searchin' so long

Heartfelt
You make my pulse melt
It's like you're indwelt
We belong always together
No need to guess
You pass the soul test
This love is heartfelt
And we'll always stay together if it's heartfelt

Rewind to 20-1-9
We're havin' such a good time
We had just gotten started
Livin' this life we prayed for

First year together was fire
Now we're in 20-2-5
That flame still brightly burnin'

We found each other
After searchin' so long

Heartfelt
You make my pulse melt
It's like you're indwelt
We belong always together
No need to guess
You pass the soul test
This love is heartfelt
And we'll always stay together if it's heartfelt
Oh, heartfelt

Something comes from above when you're brokenhearted
Thought we were all outta love, that's when heaven started

Heartfelt
You make my pulse melt
It's like you're indwelt
We belong always together
No need to guess
You pass the soul test
This love is heartfelt
And we'll always stay together if it's heartfelt
Oh, heartfelt

Our love is heartfelt
