Story Behind The Song

One of my early songs given a fresh modern update. I thought that it would fit nicely into the John Mayer mold. Like The Promise, Romeo and Gravity its one of my first batch of songs dedicated to a college paramour. While the others explored the anger, frustration or sadness of the breakup I felt that I should at least write one that expressed the elation of the 'good times'...although it was written post-breakup.

Song Description

You know that elated feeling that you get when you're in love?

Lyrics

I used to be alone standing in a crowd
I'd built a heart of stone pretended I was proud
Then came you and somehow you taught this heart to feel
Then came you my love you found the poet in me

You are the answer to my hopes yes you are the light that shines on me
Forever in my heart you'll always stay You drive my cares away
There's a line there's a fine line between love and infatuation
I know that you've been wondering dear if I've been touched by the real emotion
There's a line there's a fine line between love and infatuation
And when you've come to the end of the line I'll be here for you

There's not a shadow of a doubt
Love is here and I've found out
That its real its true and every indication points to you
Yes its real its true and I'm the lucky one I know

You are the answer to my hopes the very light that shines on me
And somewhere in my heart you'll always stay to drive my cares away
There's a line there's a fine line between love and infatuation
It's clear that you've been wondering dear have I been touched by the real emotion
There's a line there's a fine line between love and infatuation
And from now on until the end of time I'll be there for you

BRIDGE: Got my love Got my Got my love

You are the answer to my hopes the very light that shines on me
And somewhere in my heart you'll always stay to drive my cares away

outro:
There's a line there's a fine line
There's a line there's a fine fine fine line
Doo dah doo dah doo dah
