Lyrics Anniversary One - Gabriel Teodros

Hey love
I know it took time
Bur I think it was worth it
Don't you?

Did we start slow? It took ten years to know
As friendship evolved, with signs I never caught
Ways I never thought I could love so deep
A ten day first date that took us overseas
You got me
The sweetest long evenings in Sweden
Hardly any daylight, it's easy to sleep in
I had fears that you eased with a few words
Every time, like you were so sure
So pure, a desire of yours
I felt silly feeling insecure
Your love is more than a medicine or a cure
And more than anything that I could ever deserve
You took me clean to the other side of the Earth
Other side of the hurt, after years of work
It had been so long for the both of us
Thought single was just what it'd be for us
And I'm happy that we messed that up
Had to fuck around and fall in love

Long nights and winter coats with light snow
A brisk cold, a long walk in Stockholm
Who knew that when we'd hold hands
Our hearts would never let go
That was one year ago

Long nights and winter coats with light snow
A brisk cold, a long walk in Stockholm
Who knew that when we'd hold hands
Our hearts would never let go
That was one year ago

Happy anniversary love
Happy anniversary

Remember coming home unsure for a few days
Remember being nervous first time you came to my place
It felt better though with each embrace
I hate talking on the phone, but I love it with you
Whole days turned around if I'm in touch with you
It felt mutual
We laugh til tears roll
Saw family get close
Walked through the valleys and the tops of volcanos
Held each other down in the face of the hateful
There's nothing I would trade for the joy I feel
Our whole lives real
Everyday is a reminder of the way love heals
And still is working
We both stopped searching
Before we hooked up we were our own persons
It wasn't no void of a meaning or purpose
That romance filled after years a flirting, nah
My partner, forever, my love
I think we're better than we've ever been since we hooked up

Long nights and winter coats with light snow
A brisk cold, a long walk in Stockholm
Who knew that when we'd hold hands
Our hearts would never let go
That was one year ago

Long nights and winter coats with light snow
A brisk cold, a long walk in Stockholm
Who knew that when we'd hold hands
Our hearts would never let go
That was one year ago

Happy anniversary love
Happy anniversary, one
