Just Right
© 2006 Harper & Hostek

I drove by your place tonight 
Look’n to find a light on
Hoping little had changed
I took the same route that we took after school
Everyday since first grade
There’s your old place just like I remember
The smell of fresh cut grass in early September

We couldn't wait to grow up
Do things the big girls did
Dress up to sparkle and shine
Soon you became a woman and I got my first kiss and
We learned that love hurts sometimes
And there’s your window, just like an old friend
A welcome light on and I am again…

Just Right for a moment in time
In a world that’s changing fast
Seems like when our life is in pieces
Home’s a good place to land
Tell me dreams stay just where you leave them
And the air is sweet tonight
I traveled so far to wind up where I started
Where everything’s just right

I couldn't wait to leave here
You couldn't wait to stay
But fate had plans of its own
Your marriage beat the odds
Mine ran out of time
And God I felt so alone
But when I look into the eyes of my children…
I see they’re hoping for a life that can be just right

Chorus

I’ve got so much  to tell you, how I feel
What it means to me to know this was real
And here you are again, my best friend
The world is still

Chorus
