Right Person, Right Time

(专辑： Public Displays Of Affection - 2023)

I think I knew it right when I called my mom after our third date
She said I looked "disgustingly smitten"
I joked that I would marry you someday
I think I knew it right when my dad discreetly mouthed "I love him"
From across the room, that I did too

And I can't imagine getting old
But I hope I get to be with you
They're right you really do know when you know
And if he wanted to he would

I used to think that I knew what it was
How it felt, how it smelled, what it looked like
Now I know why I've never been in love
Before you it was never meant to be mine
'Cause you're the right person so it's the right time

I think I knew it right when you took me to your best friend's band's gig
You made public displays of affection even though it was the first time I met your friends
I think I knew it right when we got drunk at my family's thanksgiving
I was talking shit and politics and you still told me that I looked pretty

And I can't imagine getting old
But I hope I get to be with you
They're right you really do know when you know
And if he wanted to he would

I used to think that I knew what it was
How it felt, how it smelled, what it looked like
Now I know why I've never been in love
Before you it was never meant to be mine
'Cause you're the right person so it's the right time

I spent way too many years thinking that love had passed me by
I spent too many nights crying and asking myself why
What about me can I change? What about me don't you like?
What about me isn't enough? What about me isn't right?

Just to meet the boy who swallowed the sun in real life
Just to be at exactly the right place at exactly the right time
The right time
The right time

And I can't imagine getting old
But I hope I get to be with you
They're right you really do know when you know
And if he wanted to he would

I used to think that I knew what it was
How it felt, how it smelled, what it looked like
Now I know why I've never been in love
Before you it was never meant to be mine
'Cause you're the right person so it's the right time
