Lyrics

Forty-five minutes and a glass of red
You were halfway through your second beer
I liked your laugh, liked what you said
But I needed one thing clear
So I leaned in close across that table
Said, “There’s something I gotta know”
You smiled and asked me what I meant
I said, “Kiss me and we’ll know”

Just to make sure
There was something there
Just to see if your lips
Felt right with mine
One little kiss
That’s all I had in mind
But one turned into two
And two turned into all night
I only asked you once
Just to make sure
By midnight, baby
I was pretty damn sure

Everybody knew us in that little bar
And everybody knew what was going on
They’d laugh when we’d come up for air
Then we’d go right back where we’d left off
My wine got warm, your beer went flat
We never even noticed much
Funny how a room full of old friends
Can disappear with just one touch

Just to make sure
There was something there
Just to see if your lips
Felt right with mine
One little kiss
That’s all I had in mind
But one turned into two
And two turned into all night
I only asked you once
Just to make sure
By midnight, baby
I was pretty damn sure

Then they turned the lights up
And we finally said goodnight
You reached your hand out for me
And I slipped mine inside

No fireworks
No grand design
Your fingers just folded into mine
Like my hand had somehow known your hand
A whole lot longer than I had

I didn’t need to make sure
There was something there
Didn’t need another kiss
To tell me this was rare
Your hand fit mine
Like it knew right where to go
And walking out beside you
I knew what I didn’t wanna know
I’d only known you one night
But somewhere underneath
I was already falling
Before I was ready to believe

You kissed me goodnight
One more time at my door
I kissed you back…

Just to make sure.
