Story Behind The Song
Well, I think we've all been the person in some intense relationship that was afraid the other person didn't love us as much as we loved them or vice versa. Neither is particularly fun. I'm not saying another word to protect the innocent, of course). :)
Song Description
The couple is laying in bed. As they wake, everything is rosy, until one of the two is acting insecure and asking "needy" questions. This is hurtful to the singer, so she tries to relay her feelings that her lover should wait until there are actually signs of lost love and not make trouble where there is none.

Lyrics
"That's When You'll Know"
Alexis Tapp
Verse 1:Saturday night. It was late,
And my body'd had enough,
And everyone had gone home for the night.
And when you put your loving arms around me so tight,
And you asked me if I really cared about your loving anymore.
Verse 2:When I woke, the morning sun was shining in on our bed
As you lay there asleep by my side.
And when you opened your eyes,the doubt you could not hide,
And you asked me if I really cared.
God it hurts me. Is it fair?
'Cause if that day comes
Chorus: That's when you'll know
You are losing me.
I'll cry like a little girl
Over nothing at all.
And when you try to hold too tight to me,
I'll slip thru your fingers,
And that's when you know
You're losing me.
Instrumental Break
Bridge: Are those tears upon your face
Or just the falling rain?
If I haven't shown my love by now
Well, it brings me such pain.
How can I tell you
CHORUS 3 X's
