Kat Hammock - A Year Ago Lyrics

One year ago I dressed up
Just to walk to class
In case I ran into you on the way
There or on the way back (on the way back home)
Then on a Tuesday I finally did
But I had to hide how big I was smiling
Cause I didn't want you to read my heart or my head
In case I was alone in it
And that was a year ago

One year ago we stood on the lawn
Talking as people filtered around us
And they left as the sun
Clocked out and the stars turned on
A friend passed by
Asked what we were still doing
We froze under telltale moonlight
Then you walked me home and said goodnight
I watched from the window till you were out of sight
And that was a year ago

Now I don't have to worry that I'm caught up in my imagination
I know you reciprocate my admiration
A year ago I didn't know
Who you would be to me now

One year ago I sat down at a dinner date
And I was so nervous that I could barely touch my plate
The humidity unraveled the curls in my hair
My legs were shaking under the table
But looking up I saw you there
And I knew it was right even though I was scared
And that was a year ago

And now I can see you're exactly who my heart has needed
You've patiently held my hand while the waves of my worries have all receded

A year ago I didn't know who you would be to me now
A year ago I didn't know who you would be to me now
